Question: Question for women taking Femara!?
I'm just finishing my second month of Femara!. I had no major side effects from it up to this point!. Just some minor pain in my legs that comes and goes!. I've had the hot flashes but that could be from the hysterectomy I had in March!. The last few days by late afternoon I've been feeling very achy, like I'm coming down with the flu!. The last two days I didn't take my pill until mid afternoon!. Wondering if anyone has had side effects start up after being it on it for awhile!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
What you're describing is a fairly common complaint!. In addition to worsening hot flashes in post-menopausal women, increase in muscle and joint aches occurs quite often!. These are typically alleviated by over-the-counter meds like ibuprofen and tylenol!. In addition, heat wraps/rubs can offer some relief!. Maintaining a normal exercise regimen helps to "work out" some of the aches!. These aches/pains can last for several months but tend to go away!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
