Hello Everyone,

I have been taking Arimidex for over a year but they were not holding the cancer under control anymore so I have changed to Exaccord.

- Is anyone else taking this medication?
- Have you experienced any side effects?
- How effective is it against bone mets?

Cheers

'Bone mets' are you kidding me!

I finished chemo just over a year ago. I was unlucky to have experienced some uncommon severe side effects
I spent a long visit in hospital, followed by an op and then radiation. It was a long year but I am still here and was feeling positive despite it all untill I recieved the latest news of bone mets.
I woke up with quite severe shoulder pain at 4am today and am worried it is a new site for further spread.(It's probably just a strain or something innocent).
I am trying new oestrogen suppressants for a short period but if that doesn't work it's back to chemo.
