Arimidex - Another side effect
I've posted about the cognitive side effects I've been experiencing. I was talking about them to my BC survivor friend who is taking Arimidex. She told me about her eye troubles -- she feels her eyeballs are swelling - or that there is a lot of pressure on her eyeballs. I was surprised, because I have the same eye trouble. It didn't occur to me it might be Arimidex. I had a checkup at the opthamologist less than a year ago and all was fine. I was ready to make an appointment again with him. Has anyone else on Arimidex had feelings of pressure - swelling in the eyes?
