Everyone is different, I know that Becky is taking Arimidex and getting along fine. I stayed on Arminidex and was in strong joint pain, gave it
a full year and the pain was worse. Switched to Femarra and for me
it was 90% better. Slight joint pain now in the am upon rising and once
I get going my joints are fine. A bit stiff but certainly not that pain.
All three do the same job in the estrogen dept. even the pain continues
consider switching.
Hope you feel better!
Hugs,
jean
