Good Point

Kim,
I do agree that the further out we go from chemo the less aches and pains.
But I will note that prior to chemo I was on Arimidex for one year and the
joint pain was rather strong. I continued to exercise (which I believe is
an important key in pain control) but even without chemo I was suffering.
Also take Cosamin/Chondroitin supplements but it did not ease up the pain.
The AI's do effect the body joints and muscle. I would say that anyone that has tried all the natural methods and foods and still experience strong pain should consider the Cymbalta.

Good Luck to all!
Jean
