Re: Femara
Hi - I'm 2 1/2 yrs post surgery and taking generic Femara. I have a lot of bone/joint pain, and my hands are the worst. I can't make a fist with my left hand in the morning, and that makes getting anything difficult. I've been recently diagnosed with peripheral artery disease and have to wear industrial strength knee-high support hose. Getting those things on and off is a chore. I need another set of hands, or at least one pair that work.
Since there are a large number of you who have been on this drug for ten or more years, I'm interested in knowing if the bone/joint pain gets better, or is this the way it will be. What do you do for pain? I take arthritis strength acetaminophen and use topical ointments as well.
Thanks,
Lynne
