arimidex sides ?

[N!MrOd]

i was reading thru the side effects of arimidex when i came across these:
" You may experience the following side effects with the use of this drug(adex):

Common Symptoms
Dyspnea (shortness of breath);Dizziness;Diarrhea;Nausea or vomiting
Headache;Hot flashes;Cough;Dry mouth;Skin rash;Sweating

Abdominal pain--> i think i have this one. its a niggling pain that refuses to go away...worries the heck outta me coz i keep thinking its my liver

Bone pain

Tiredness or weakness--> feeling more tired/weak lately as well; heck i barely managed to work out 3 days this week. even without the test i used to average 5 days/wk :cry

Cough or sore throat
Muscle or joint pain
Fever or chills
Dizziness
Breast pain
Itching"

dont have any of the other sides as yet, except the ones i described above.
been on 500mg sus 250/wk-- finished 3 weeks of this. no orals except the adex
been taking liv 52 DS for liver, besides glucosamine supp for joints and regular multivit and efa supps. i try to drink a gallon water a day. never skip meals.
so should i stop the darn adex totally for a while just to get back the strength i was gaining on the sust alone ?
if u guys agree then i'll stop the adex totally, thx.

none of those are side effects of arimidex

I've used arimidex for over 5 years, believe me - it's BS.

guess i was over-reacting to what i read on the internet :P
the pain musta been smthg i ate that prolly disagreed with me.
well but just to play safe, i think i'll stay off the adex for a while.
anyway i think 500 mg/wk of sus isnt too high ...
better safe than sorry lolz

[Mr.X]

don't worry bro, if those were the sides - I'd be dead by now

I have used adex at from .5 to 1mg a day for extended periods and the only side I ever noticed was decreased libido. That problem can be resolved by reducing the dose slightly.

kewl thanks for the gr8 inputs.
am gonna reduce adex to 0.25mg/day and see how it goes...

The side effects and contra-indications that they mention in advertisements and anywhere else that is necessary is done so by law. I think it was a pharmacist that told me one time that any side effects that occur in "up-to" 1% of the recipients has to be listed in every commercial, label, and anywhere else the pharmaceutical product is sold or advertised.

You need to understand that arimidex is a drig targeted at females for prevention and treatment of breast cancer. The female physiology requires estrogen for proper functioning. The side effects listed are meant to apply to females only, as there is no FDA approved male condition for which arimidex is a prescribed medication.

kewl thanks erokyrwrld. but my tummy still aches when i'm lying down ...a dull ache. feels tender to touch on the right side. got my blood panel for liver enzymes tested yesterday. gonna get my report today. hopefuly it shud turn up normal, coz i dont smoke nor drink, though i used to couple years back.
my doctor buddy says the pain may be due to a urinary tract issue(rather than liver) -->again i dont see how, coz i have about 1 gallons of water/day.

so heres the deal... my test came out normal. but i still get a dull throbbing pain in my abdomen on the extreme right side from the belly button. it was NOT there when i worked out today. but i skipped hitting my abs becoz i dint want it to come back! so my doc says to take it easy, use light weights. but he doesnt know i'm juicing lolz :P
