For me, I only walked on the treadmill (about a mile/day) during chemo and afterwards. Nine months after chemo (when I finally came out of the chemo fog), my muscles and tendons had lost their flexibility, the the neuropathy from the chemo was mixing signals. I added a strenuous balance/coordination class, tai chi, started seeing a physical therapist, and then a chiropractor who practices soft-tissue therapy... all because I hadn't been doing the right exercises during that fateful year. The aches and pains were not all attributable to the anastrozole -- many were due to not exercising my overall body. I wish that my oncologist had counseled me on the dangers of lack of proper muscle/tendon use, but he seems to be focused elsewhere (which is understandable). In the meantime, I work slavishly at trying to retrain my brain and body and regain lost use at age 71. (Not how I planned to spend my Golden Years!) It all would be worse, I fear, if I had done no exercise during this time.
