[KRISS]

I was only on tamoxafine for about 3 months when they switched me to femara after my hysterectomy. I had no side affects for the first 2 months but for the last three have had horrible joint and bone pain, not to mention the swelling in my hands. Some days I have no feelinging in either hand or only partial fingers. My knees hurt the most and with my physical job I'm in trouble. My Onc wants me to stay on it for at least 9 months to see if it lessens and then he might switch me. He believes there is no validity to switch. So we will wait it out a little longer.
