Janelle, I don't think I fit your description as highly triple positive but have taken arimidex for eighteen months now and so far still ned coming up to my three years out.
I'd consider any % wothwhile in taking these drugs despite the side effects as I'm sure taking it has a lot to do with so far keeping the cancer away.
Good luck and sorry I can't help more.
