I have severe arthritis In my fingers and wrists worried letrozole will increase pain, does anyone have any ideas for vitamins etc that may help.
Hi, sorry to hear you're worried about the impact of letrozole on your arthritis, I can understand that as for some people, letrozole does indeed worsen joint pain. I'm not aware of any specific vitamins and I think we do have to be careful about any supplements in case there are other interactions.
You might want to have a chat with the lovely folks on the Macmillan helpline, they might be able to offer some advice. You can call them on 0800 808 0000 from 8am to 8pm daily. Best wishes
