breast cance
"I have been on Arimidex for 3 years and about 1 year of the generic Anastrozole. I had a horrible time at first with hot flashes and night sweats and also joint pains. But now after about 4 years I am doing a lot better. Hardly any hot flashes and night sweats.  The joint pains have also subsided but I have started a walking program everyday that I really believe has helped me.  I have gained about 20lbs in the past 4 years that I am trying to get off.  I really think it is due to menopause and also the medicine."
