Oh Yes....
I had started out slow with the joint and muscle and it did build up.
There were mornings my ankles felt they would not support me.
It took a bit of time to get going. Exercise is very important.
After my chemo trt..I spoke with my onc. and we decided to switch
to Femara - and now it is 90% better. Small (very small) amount of
joint stiffness in fingers upon waking.
Hope this info helps..if it gets bad maybe you might wish to consider
switching...Femara and Armindex do the same job - for some reason
the Femara does not effect me the same way. I think some other gals
switched also..Ann (I think) ....
Good Luck...hope you feel better...
