Concerned about the side effects of anastrozole

also be sure to ask about possible interactions with other drugs that you might be taking. I am beginning to think that some of my side effects such as joint pain are from an interaction between atorvastatin (Lipitor) and the anastrazole… Sometimes things happen that are not within the doctor's usual scope of knowledge.

I had similar concerns regarding my statin and recently asked my GP if I could take a break from it to see if I feel better. Yes, some of the muscle pain issues are better, but the bone and joint pains remain, *sigh*
