You are definitely not alone. We all feel this way at some point in our Anastrozole journey.

I’m four years into taking Anastrozole and am dealing with limbs that are achy and numb while I’m either sleeping or in an inclined position.

My oncologist prescribed 100mg of Gabapentin at night which has helped. ♥️

If you are numb maybe you should have your B2 tested. I have taken it for about 8 or 9 months and it has helped with my arms and legs going numb. That’s B2 not B12. Hope you can find something to help you.

I just stopped taking Anastrozole ( after 5 yrs) not needed after 5 yrs
The only symptoms I had was tiredness and brain fog ( so I was told)
This brings up the question Is brain fog really real or a symptom of chemotherapy?. My memory is has gotten bad to point is it really from Anastrozole, or at age 68 early dementia???
Guess it’s a question to ask under different category
