Hi Angela,
Yes, I am taking femara. Nurse tells me for the adjustment to femara, it takes the body to settle in about 1-3 weeks from the first administration.
I first took Ambien as a sleep pill, then after a while it stopped working. I switched to another prescribed sleep pill called I think tenapazam ???spell?>. It's ok, but I still prefer ambien; I fall asleep faster. I guess I could try ambien again, after tenapazam not being effective (if necessary)
Insomnia is one side effect of menopause, unfortunately. My mother tells me that insomnia hits her 2-3 times per week! That's quite a lot to me. When she really needs her sleep badly, she just takes benadryl.
Dunno about swelling though, I doubt it's causing by femara.
Keep me posted, as I'm interested in hearing other's experiences. Good luck!
