Is anyone taking either of these? My doc is switching me from tamoxifen. His preference is femera because he said alot of his patients taking arimidex had bone and joint pain. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated!!

My advice is to do some more research on both drugs, looking at side effects and effective tx for your age pre or post menopausal, then you'll be more confident which drug is for you.
Do your homework. I'm sure you'll get response on this here too. Hugs Christine

EXPERIENCING BAD LEG AND JOINT PAIN WITH ARIMIDEX SEEMS TO BE LOCATED IN TENDON AND LIGAMENT PER MY NEURO MUSCULAR MASSAGE THERAPIST. I'VE BEEN TAKING ABOUT 3 1/2 YEARS SINCE MASTECTOMY AFTER OF 6 MONTHS OF TAMOXIFEN WHICH CAUSED BONE ACHES IN FEMURS.

ANYONE WITH SIMLAR EXPERIENCES I WOULD BE INTERESTED IN TALKING TO. CONSIDERING DISCONTINUING USE OF ARIMIDEX BECAUSE OF THE PAIN ISSUE.


THANKS.
