I was wondering the exact same thing about the feet. My feet are so stiff in the morning that I can hardly go down the stairs and I am only 34 years old, so it can't be my age. I take Femera instead of Arimidex because Arimidex caused severe joint pain especially in my knees and hips. I also had a hysterectomy and bilat ooph, so I was wondering if that had anything to do with it. Then again, maybe it is that extra 15 cancer pounds that I have been carrying around. Another weird thing is my feet have grown a size since diagnosis. (Guess that matches the rest of my body.) I don't see my onc til November, but I will ask him then to see what his take on it is. I am just glad that this is my biggest complaint at this point in my life since diagnosis 2 1/2 years ago!
