    Arimidex Side Effect?

    Just wondering if anyone has gotten a “pins and needles” side effect from arimidex . It happens when body temperature gets slightly warm. It’s like there is a thousand little pins poking my skin gets very itchy as well. Goes away when my body temp goes down. Maybe crashed estrogen? I have blood panel coming back early next week. But because it takes a week + to get results back and another couple to get labs put in, it’s hard to tell when to come off pct because of the gap in blood results.

    Estrogen @ 575 started 1mg Arimidex every other day. Dropped to 400 on next lab went to every 3rd day on arimidex.

    Side effects can vary but I feel like 1mg of Arimidex EOD is a lot. I split a 1mg dose over 7-10 days.

    I’ve read that a lot too and it probably is. They’re in capsules so it makes it tough to split dosages. I’m going to discontinue usage, I think that’s the best solution on it right now.

    Drop the Arimidex - no need to take poison.

    1 mg is ridiculous eod..it’s a really harsh drug...
    My suggestion is read some of the threads recently on here about the necessity of a AI and if you feel you can’t control excess water retention with diet and you insist..in past highest dose I’ve used is 0.25 e3d ..

    agree ..
    if you don't want elevated estrogen then learn how to cycle with AAS that do not cause this problem to begin with, rather then try to fix it with a crappy drug after the fact like an AI.

    and yes, AI's are not diuretics . they don't get rid of water retention. and no estrogen is not in and of itself the cause of water retention either
