Arimidex (anastrozole) for Breast Cancer: Initially, I tolerated the drug well. About 4 months into treatment, I had a lot of problems: dizziness, disorientation, joint and muscle pain and stomach upset. Also, my hair started to thin, and nails cracked due to dryness. Within a week of stopping the drug I was feeling better. One month out and I was very well.

Arimidex (anastrozole) for Breast Cancer: Debilitating joint and bone pain forced me off this medication. Had to be treated as if pain was rheumatoid arthritis. Very severe. I have read many other stories similar to mine.
