I spoke to my nurse and asked if I could have the shots somewhere else as I felt my bottom needed a rest. The last shot was in the top of the thigh at the side and what a difference. No pain during the shot and only slight pain during the days after, certainly less inflammation, though the swelling was much the same. Velvet Velvet Fri, 26 Aug 2005 00:00:00 GMT Have you had any other side effects?  I was on Faslodex for 3mosbut they took me off and put me on Aromasin.  I had a Pet Scanthat showed some very slight tiny spots in my lungs that mayhave been metastatic.  I had originally had it matasticise to mybones.  I am now in remission.  I do not like the Aromasin.  Itcauses weight gain and foot pain that I had not experienced before.
