Hi , I finished 6 rounds of chemo 4 weeks ago and started getting muscle ache in my arms legs and buttocks about 2 weeks ago. I started radiotherapy last week and have another 2 weeks to go and also started on Letrozole last week.
I don't know if the muscle ache is due to the chemotherapy or whether the Letroxole is making it worse as a side affect, if anyone has experienced this, does it get better over time because I feel like an eighty year old not being able to move easily and I have to take the medication for ten years.
hoping for good news

Hi lulupop
I didn't have chemo, so can't comment I'm afraid. Bumping up as your post has slipped to the 2nd page.
