I really appreciate you all who have taken the time to post about anastrozole. I wish I would have done more research before taking it, literally, I think the side effects were given to me in a nonchalant way. I’m thinking Dr should have given a list of side effects and how to handle them if they happen. I am currently off anastrozole, but will be discussing another drug -IN PERSON- with doctor. I have also been referred to an integrated medicine doctor( appointment mid October)… I do believe exercise,stretching etc is very essential.
