I have had headaches on and off for years due to problems in my neck that I've had surgery twice for. Those are always in the back of my head around the neck area. Lately I have been having headaches on the right side of my head. I plan to talk to my oncologist Wednesday when I see her.

Sounds like a very good plan Melody. Hopefully she will schedule some imaging. I was supposed to have a head CT but couldn't because of iron infusion. You reminded me that I should ask about that again. Here is hoping that your headaches are related to beck issues, a bad pillow or any number of more innocuous reasons. Sending a hug.πŸ€—

I had to be switched from anastrazole to letrozole because of the unbearable aches from head to toe. I was on anastrazole for almost 2 years, every move of my body hurt. I still have joint pain on the letrozole, but not near as bad as anastrazole. I am much happier now, I can take 1 aleve and I am basically pain free during the day.

Yes, have had Anastrozole headache. I can tell the difference from the recurring migraines I have. OTC helps Anastrozole headaches.
