I have been on Anastrazole for 18 months and am in constant pain. I already had Fibromyalgia and Oestioarthritus and now it's become unbearable any advise
Poor you, this sounds rather unbearable and having to suffer this constant pain on a daily basis for 18 months must be rather debilitating especially as you already suffer from fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis. You will see in our information on anastrazole - which includes a full list of common side effects - that painful or stiff muscles are a common occurrence. It would be worth speaking to your doctor or nurse about what painkillers might be suitable for you. Do tell your doctor that this pain is truly unbearable and I am sure they will have some good suggestions for you.
Our nurses are also available on this free number 0808 800 4040 if you would like to talk things through with them - their line is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm.
Anastrazole has been discussed countless times on the forum and there are other members who have mentioned it affecting their bones and muscles. You can read more about their experiences on this long thread for example but there are many more anastrazole accounts on the forum. If you type 'anastrazole' on our forum search which is located on the blue banner at the top, you will be able to find all the other relevant threads on the subject and feel free to respond to any you feel you would like to engage with.
I hope you manage to get this pain sorted soon and that you will hear from others here who have been in a similar place before.
