Letrozole and tumour size

I have estrogen positive invasive ductal carcinoma - Grade 2 - her2 negative and progesterone negative - diagnosed in March last year. On letrozole.

The tumour is 3.4 cm central right breast (behind) nipple. The only option I have been given is mastectomy because of tumour size in relation to breast size. Smaller breast :( 

I am disappointed I have not had more shrinkage - on letrozole since 19 May last year. They are telling me now it is stable disease but they don't think waiting 5-6 months longer is going to make any difference.

Has anyone had better success the longer they are on it?

I would be so grateful to hear your experience.
