Can I take cod liver oil or a similar supplement with Anastrozole? Really struggling with joint pain

Hi 

Not sure if I am posting on the group , just after some advice regarding taking Anastrozole .

i have been on this for just over 2 years, but the joint pain in my legs and feet are really bothering me at the moment.

just wondering if I can take Cod Liver oil or a similar supplement with the Anastrozole to ease the pain , so many conflicting reports on the internet.

Thought if I ask fellow cancer friends I might get some direct answers .

Thank You so much

    Sorry it has taken me so long to reply, but not a medical proffesional but into herbs and supplements. The web site i use says that there is no reason for not taking cod liver oil. It an American site Memorial Slone Kettering institute and was given to me by Maggies. I can suggest using a magnesium oil (bought or made by dissolving epsom salts in hot water) this sprayed onto joint pain can work wonders as a lack of magnesium is often a cause of joint pain. Wishing you all the best in your search and hope you can overcome this
