I am seriously having a hard time to start taking Arimadex(sp) as I have M.S. and one of the most common side effect is joint and muscle pain to which I am very susceptible to because of the MS. Has any MS patient who has had breast cancer had any experience with this medication? I am also my husbands only caregiver and he has advanced Parkinson's. Needs a lot of help and I have to do everything around the house so I must be able to function well. Have a Blessed day.

Hi there, soz to hear your in more pain, I have friends with joint pain on arimidex. The oncologist said there is evidence that ~50% of folk benefit from taking turmeric with black pepper. Several friends have tried this and it has helped them, though none have MS. May be worth a try. Hope it helps.
Hi I had breast cancer 10yrs ago and then Lymphedema. At first I had Tamoxifen for 2yrs and then started on arimadix. Within 2 months I developed arthritis in feet and fingers. At first I didn't realise it was a side affect of the medication until a friend suggested this. I spoke to the hospital and they suggested I Went back onto tamoxifen which I Did and within 1 month my symptoms had gone. You could try the arimadix and if you get problems stop immediately.
Thank you Jenet. Still struggling with the decision to start taking it. My oncologist told me to wait til I felt better b4 starting it so I would know if I had any side effect I would recognize them. I still have a lot of days that I have a lot of joint and muscle pains so I keep putting of starting it. A lot of it started while I was doing radiation. Did you see the latest on the tamoxifen causing permanent hair loss. Eeekkkk !
Arimadex without a prescription - onlinecheappills.com Good price and quality.
I️ have Lyme disease which has the same symptoms as MS by the way and couldn’t handle the Tamoxifen- doc let me quit for a couple months- the brain fog was unbearable along with the panic attacks! Ugh
I️ didn’t care about the hot flushes or joint pain just the panic attacks and insane brain fog was enough and add the other 20 side effects - I️ plan on going back on it- just maybe 10mg- we’ll see.
Sorry to hear about your Lyme's . Thanks for the answer though as my main concern is what it might do to the MS. My husband has late stage Parkinson's and need a lot of help thus I need to totally try to keep the MS under control and my mind "clear" !. The cancer and radiation itself has affected it more than I like to see it. Tough decision for me. Best of luck as you re-try the meds. My PCP gave me a script for the nasuea and one of the top listed side affects is seizures. Just what I wanted to see so it still sits on the cupboard unopened. I am the only driver here and motor vehicle departments can be tough on ya if they find out you have a seizure !
