Kisquali Ribociclib and Letrozole

Hi Alison020463

I'm sorry to read that since being on ribociclib and letrozole you have gained weight and you feel that your whole body has become firm and puffy. I've found this information for you on letrozole and you'll see that weight gain is, unfortunately, one of the listed common side effects of the drug.

I don't have the experience you need but I noticed that our post hadn't had any replies yet. This is such an active group that your post has probably slipped off the first page before someone with the right experience has seen it. Replying to you will 'bump' your post back to the top of the discussion list where it'll be more easy to spot.

I noticed in your profile that you have put that you have secondary breast cancer so you might also like to join the secondary breast cancer group. If this is something that you'd like to do clicking on the link I've created will take you straight there where you can join and post in the same way as you did here.

Thank you so much for your attention and your reply, it helped.  Seems no matter what I do I am unable to lose the weight.  I thought it was just the warm weather we have been experiencing causing my ankles to swell.

I will join the secondary breast cancer group - thank you again xx

You're very welcome

I have had a weight problem for years and struggle to keep it down but since Letrozole it has been a much worse struggle. I am managing to keep it down but it is hard work.

Keep battling!
