Hi
I posted on here a few months ago when I started on Anastrozole in March time. I don’t know if it was related but I had really uncomfortable leg and glute aches which did subside around June/July time & wasn’t as bad. Since Aug they have come back and so uncomfortable really getting me down seems even more uncomfortable and been upset so many times not being able to get comfy. Ice packs seem to help a bit but can’t sit with ice packs for rest of my life surely!!!
I am unsure if it’s related as also been having palpitations which identified low eptopics after 24hr ecg but pushed for an echo to make sure nothing underlying which is next week (had to go private as told months for NHS Waiting list!) their just seems to be 1 thing after another!!! :-( being a nurse probably doesn’t help and im also worrying if it’s something heart related/ circulatory or vascular
I have my follow up after surgery with breast surgeon next week so not sure what to do? She has suggested an MRI to check lumbar for reassurance and check no disc impingement but I haven’t had any lower back pain!! Not sure what to do?? To change meds or carry on. Has anyone swapped treatment with success? Any advice or if anyone can relate would be so much appreciated
I was stage 1 had lumpectomy and radio and informed low risk finished radio in April.
Just want to feel normal again
