I talked to my onc about this 2 weeks ago. He said he wanted me on the Arimidex if I thought I could tolerate it. He said something about because the way the clinical trials had been done on all the AI's, Arimidex was the best one for me.

He also said that most people who have joint/bone pain from Arimidex will have the same pain on another AI. Today, my pharmacist told me the same thing. But there are lots of women here who have switched and had less pain. I am definitely getting worse. I guess I'll give it a bit more time and then tell him I want to try something else.
