I hate Femara, How about you?

[bharkins]

I have been on Femara for the past 14 months. I have trouble sleeping, experience excessive sweating when nobody else is even the least bit hot, get up from a chair and walk like an old lady, knees kill me when I attempt to go up or down stairs and have gained weight and cannot seem to lose it. Anyone else experience this on Femara? I am afraid not to take it because of the alternative.

yeah, I bet I hate aromasin and arimdex just as much!!!
Same pains here...I actually had synvisc injections in my knees because the pain got unbearable while on aromasin..switched to arimidex and joint and muscle pain seem to have gotten a little better, but now suffering from sever stomach pain..have been in the hospital twice this month for it!
I have about 7months to go before I finish my total 5yr treatment..am so looking forward to that day!!!
Kinda feel like we are stuck...after having a recent scare and thinking I had brain mets..I know Ive got to stick it out and finish with the treatment.
This all stinks, doesn't it!?
hugs to you,
