arimidex side effects??
Hello Ladies,
I recently quit tamoxifen due to it's horrid side effects. I was on it for 2.2 yrs. quit november 27th. I was lathargic, bloated, thickened wall with cysts, weight gain, acne-ed, you name it. I hated it. However, I'm triple positive and am nervous not taking anything now. Last hormone test showed post-menopause. Onc wants to do one more to be sure. If that's the case I'll go on arimidex.
Please tell me what to expect on arimidex? I know there's bone loss and joint paint. (great). but how does it compare to tamoxifen? I read somewhere that it causes some hair loss and foggy memory. is this true?? what else? has anyone gained weight on it? I'm trying really hard to lose the weight I gained on tamoxifen. I don't crave the sugar and carbs anymore and am scared arimidex will put me back there.
I'm stage 2a, er+pr+her2+, grade3. TAC(6), rads, lupectomy
thanks for you help!
Cindy
