Evening all,
I’m taking letrozole and alendronic plus Adcal. Just had my yr 3 mammogram and anxiously awaiting the results.
my joint pain has been tolerable so far, but these last few weeks the pain is much worse in my knees and ankles.
i’m wondering if I should speak to the gp, will they only suggest stopping the letrozole. Anyone else been down this road?
I really want to continue for 10 years, my bone density has remained the same because of the alendronic acid, but the pain is pretty bad at times.
Also has anyone had a knee replacement while on alendronic ?
if only they would release the stats for recurrence so we can make informed decisions.
