I give in. Letrozole has to go. Ringing bcn Monday going to try tamoxifen The side effects that I have put up with for two years have beat me
Hiya, so have you had bad headaches in Letrozole? I stopped taking my Anastrazole because I was getting really bad headaches, I'm having a month off them I still have some headaches but nowhere near as bad, I intend to try again just to make sure they are the problem before I give up completely!
Yes fuzzy head. And migraine aches and pains all over my body. How long have you been taking them xx. I tried Anastrozole was the same thing n that so looks like I’ll try tamoxifen Is anyone taking antidepressants I have read that they help side effects ?????
I only took them about 6 months.....had lots of aches and pain's, but then changed to time I took them and my aching legs improved a lot.....butter the headaches started...I am not at all stoic!!!!
I am now taking antidepressants as I was feeling so low, always having some ailment.....and feeling so much better.
But do feel I need to give the Anastrazole another go
I definitely have health anxiety since breast cancer I think I may need anti depressants. Wonder if my doctor will give me them xx
You can have a chat with him/her.....they do not suit everyone, I take fluoxetine and have the benefit that they stop the hot flashes.....I just feel so much more relaxed than I did......not so weepy. Good luck, let me know how you get on.
