Anyone taking Arimidex?

I have moved from South Louisiana to East Tennessee to live with my daughter following the death of my husband in June. I have new doctors etc. This is a much smaller town than Baton Rouge, but so far everything seems good. My new doctor has prescribed Arimidex daily. It's a pill, and I knew I would be taking it, but I thought I'd begin after Herceptin.

Does anyone have any experience with this drug? So far I'm not noticing too many side effects other than an increase in neuropathy in hands and feet. :-(

Best to all,
Lynne
