Add a friend!

Adding friends can make your myCORNER experience all the richer. Friends can send each other wishes, motivate each other to stay on track with treatment, send gifts to each others’ gardens, and more.

Choose any tab above to search for friends.

Or choose Advanced Search to search by several categories at once.

Search for a friend who was diagnosed when you were — or find someone who has more or less time since her diagnosis. It’s a great way to share wisdom and give or get support.

Hormonal treatment is important, but it isn’t always easy. Find a friend who’s been on treatment longer than you — maybe she can keep you motivated to stay on track. Or find someone who was recently diagnosed. Maybe you can help her.

It’s nice to know you have a friend nearby. Or somewhere you love to visit. Search for a friend by location.


Do you have most fun when you’re around a Scorpio? Or do you prefer the down-to-earth sensibilities of a Capricorn? Find new friends by star sign. (check as many as you want)

Looking for someone who will get you completely? Or someone completely different from you? Serious, silly, or somewhere in between — search for friends by personality.

Important Information About ARIMIDEX

ARIMIDEX is approved for adjuvant treatment (treatment following surgery with or without radiation) of postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer.

ARIMIDEX is approved for the initial treatment of postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive or hormone receptor-unknown locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer and for the treatment of postmenopausal women with advanced breast cancer that has progressed following treatment with tamoxifen. Patients with hormone receptor-negative disease and patients who did not previously respond to tamoxifen therapy rarely responded to ARIMIDEX.

Important Safety Information About ARIMIDEX

Prescription ARIMIDEX is only for postmenopausal women. ARIMIDEX should not be taken if you are pregnant because it may harm your unborn child.

Based on information from a study in patients with early breast cancer, women with a history of blockages in heart arteries (ischemic heart disease) who take ARIMIDEX may have a slight increase in this type of heart disease compared to similar patients who take tamoxifen.

ARIMIDEX can cause bone softening/weakening (osteoporosis) increasing the chance of fractures. In a clinical study in early breast cancer, there were more fractures (including fractures of the spine, hip, and wrist) with ARIMIDEX (10%) than with tamoxifen (7%).

In a clinical study in early breast cancer, some patients taking ARIMIDEX had an increase in cholesterol. Skin reactions, allergic reactions, and changes in blood tests of liver function have also been reported.

In the early breast cancer clinical trial, the most common side effects seen with ARIMIDEX include hot flashes, joint symptoms (including arthritis and arthralgia), weakness, mood changes, pain, back pain, sore throat, nausea and vomiting, rash, depression, high blood pressure, osteoporosis, fractures, swelling of arms/legs, insomnia, and headache.

In advanced breast cancer trials, the most common side effects seen with ARIMIDEX versus tamoxifen include hot flashes, nausea, decreased energy and weakness, pain, back pain, headache, bone pain, increased cough, shortness of breath, sore throat, and swelling of arms and legs. Joint pain/stiffness has been reported in association with the use of ARIMIDEX.

ARIMIDEX should not be taken with tamoxifen or estrogen-containing therapies.
