I've been taking since Jan 2020. The biggest problem I have is headaches. Every month and lasts for 4 days. Paracetamol etc don't help. I have to ride it through.
Sometimes it's really bad, mygrain type. I work , I don't like having time off. I worry and then get stressed out that if I'm off I get triggered and then I would have to have a conversation for being off. Any advice much appreciated
Hi and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I'm sorry to read how anastrozole is affecting you and I can understand why you'd want to see how other people might be affected who take it. You haven't said what type of cancer you've been prescribed this for and, as the online community is divided up into different support groups, if you can tell me I could give you a link to the relevant group.
Alternatively you could look through this list, choose the appropriate one for you and then join and start a new post asking for other's experiences in the same way as you did here.
It would be great if you could pop something about your diagnosis and treatment into your profile as it really helps others when replying to you and also when looking for someone on a similar pathway. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
If you have any difficulty navigating the community just drop me a reply and I'll be pleased to help
