Anastrozole - headaches, disequilibrium, and groin pain

Posted by trixie1313 @trixie1313, Apr 5, 2019

Anyone having disequilibrium as well as headaches and groin pain on anastrozole. I've e-mailed my oncologist to see if I can go to half dose for a while. I've seen suggestions about getting an estradial lab test on a few posts and have asked for that as well.

@sandrajo, I moved your message to this discussion that @trixie1313 started, asking about anastrozole (Arimidex) and headaches. Trixie, how have you managed the headaches?
Sandra, have you talked to your oncologist about the headaches?

I have developed disequilibrium in the last month or so. I have been on anastrazole for 16 months and Ibrance for 13 months. The balance and dizziness issues are new — which make playing golf and doing yoga a real challenge. Any suggestions on managing this would be helpful.

I had to stop the anastrozole due to splitting headaches 24/7. I was given a couple of weeks off and then started on letrozole, but no headaches with that.
