Hi, I’m 58 & had a double mastectomy in June last year. I’fe been taking Anastrozole since around September. My eating habits have not changed at all but my weight definitely has! Anyone else experienced weight gain taking this? The fact that I’m not sleeping either is doing nothing for my energy levels to be able to counteract the weight gain. I can be absolutely exhausted when going to bed but then just lay there wide awake. 2 hours sleep on a night is not uncommon. I’ve got a check up with my clinical oncologist in April but just wondered if anyone else has had these experiences with Anastrozole.
I'm on Tamoxifen, my 2nd year now. I'm 67 I have gained weight but not massively. My body had already changed with the post menopause effect. I try to be active but it is a bit uphill at times. Energy affected by hormone blockers. Are you still working? I was in Letrozole but my knee became so painfully I asked to change. Now on Bisphosphonates as well. I'm determined to keep dancing and doing things for me. I just think we have to have some fun, work out what would rock your boat the most. Can't work it out do it any way. I did it at 60, started doing things to work out what I most enjoyed. 
Yes Bis infusion. I want to try and do more and curb the appetite. I'm lazy now in-between activities but I've earned it.
