What Are The Side Effects Of Arimidex?
My oncologist told me (when I had surgery for breast cancer) that if I took Arimidex there was a 90% chance the cancer would not recur. If I did not take Arimidex there was an 80% chance the cancer would not recur. I this is true, wouldn t it be better not to take that medicine if the side effects are so severe that they cause other problems that are debilitating.
