Michka,

I am sorry to hear you are suffering so. I actually switched from Femara to Arimidex, due to the side effect of tinnitus (ringing in the ears). It is less so with the Arimidex. On Femara, I had no joint pain. With Arimidex, I do get joint pain on occassion, particularly in my thumbs. The two drugs are fundamentally the same, with slightly different molecular configurations. Whatever is different about Femara, for most people it clears up the joint pain side effects they experience on Arimidex.

Good luck with your treatment plan,

Hopeful
