I have recently been diagnosed with breast cancer - hormone fed. 
They cannot operate at the moment as my tumour is too close to my breast muscle and would mean damaging the use of my arm. 
today they have put me on Letrozole in the hope that my tumour will shrink and then they can operate safely. 
Anyone else on this drug? How are you doing? 

  • Hello Atlas

    I was on it from November to last week and a break now while I have chemo/radiotherapy. I was better on accord brand than Sun pharmaceutical but everyone will tolerate differently. I got aching in the  hip & leg muscles when I stood up but walking, swimming & yoga all helped. I’ve to be on it for 10 years after.
