Well, guess I just learned another thing about 4 yrs of exemestane - trigger thumb for the last year; very painful and unexplained sudden appearance. No one - ortho, Onco or primary suggests side effect of the drug. So much they don’t seem to know; unsure they care - it’s always ‘just be glad’….Also now debilitating pain in hips, toes - though I remain active not sedentary. Long for the day they listen, connect the dots, do research related to one size fits all dosage of these drugs.

Cortisone shot helped my thumb, but only for 2 months. Then stiff again. Then when j took two weeks off to switch from anastrozole to exemestane and started that early April my thumb is loosening up again..not perfect but a lot better. Weird
