Re: Question about Continuing Arimidex past 5 years

Pink- I have'nt heard anything about this but some people I know have just stopped at five years with no ill effects so I'd say go for it!

Nancy, I have severe osteopenia (dx recently) and have my first yearly zometa iv tomorrow, but really want to remain on arimidex too after my five years in June so will be interested in any replies to your question.!
