Hi MJo,
I've been complaining about my weight gain, on and off, since I joined
this board. And here I am ......... still complaining.
I take both Arimidex and Celexa. My weight continues to climb ... I have
wicked cravings for sugar ...
I am going to make an appointment with my family doc and talk to her
about trying a different anti-d. I am going to stick with the Arimidex
for sure. Hopefully there will be an anti-d that doesn't turn me into
an eating machine. I have always liked sugar/chocolate but I have
become compulsive about it ... I don't want one chocolate bar, I want
10. I've also started drinking about two pots of coffee per day ... I used to have one cup of decaf instant coffee that I made in the microwave No one else on this planet would drink it .... now I drink tons of coffee, all day long ..... something is causing this ... I don't even like coffee all that much.
I hope my family doc has some ideas.
