Amrimidex vs Letrozole

Hello @jixs stiffness and muscle pain is a known side effect of arimidex (Anastrazole). I am sorry that you are struggling with this.
I did take anastrazole for years, and I found that a walk once a day took all that stiffness away. I have read this same comment from others in this support group.
I honestly think letrozole has a worse set of side effects. With the nausea, and the dizziness or just feeling off balance. This is just one case but I felt like arimidex was at least a side effect I could do something about.
Have you tried anything to make the stiffness better? What helped, what didn’t? Have you talked to your doctor about it?

Thank you for your response. Today my doctor told me to stop taking the meds for 5 days...we need to make my symptoms are not related to my RA. I will say the one side effect of letrozole -fatigue is a huge issue with me...I already fight fatigue with my RA 😔

This is the only one I can have compounded, but I was told there were 3 forms of it. I need to make this decision, so thank you for the good input. God Bless
