I have been on Arimidex for six months along with a year of Herceptin for Stage IV breast cancer and have experienced incredible stiffness and pain. At first, it seemed to be in my upper body, hands, and hips, but the past month the ache has really travelled to my feet and knees. I have only tried exercise ,especially walking and it helps some. I still wonder if I should try ginger tea, fish oil, vit D or glucosamine condrointin but I get disgusted and don't try anything. I am 47 years old but I feel- and sometimes look -like I am 70. And incredibly all of this has happened over just twelve months! I'm sure many of you can relate. We are all just wanting to LIVE. My Doctor's response to trying different products for relief was very non-convincing-"well you can take those things and see if it works for you."
