Anastrole anti cancer drug

Help

I have been on this drug for 8 weeks and the pain in my wrist and hands is horrible at night. Have been told that it is not the drug. But the paperwork says it is a side effect.

Has anyone else got these feelings.

I am going to come off it as I cant stand the pain.

Hi shadowdance

Whilst you wait for the other users to reply with their experiences of this medication it might be helpful to talk things through with a member of staff on the BCC helpline.  Here you can share your thoughts and concerns with someone who will offer you a listening ear as well as support and information.  The number to call is 0808 800 6000 and the lines are open Monday to Friday 9 to 5pm and Saturday 10 to 2pm.
