Re: End of Arimidex -- Side Effects???

rebzeb,

From what I've read the side effects become less and less. I would love to come off arimidix but, at my five year mark, my oncologist ask me to stay on it another five years. My next appointment is soon and I plan to talk with her again about the side effects.
Many blessings to you!!!
