I went through my 3rd surgery for breast cancer in October. 2 weeks ago I started taking Letrozole. About a week after starting I start feeling nauseas everyday but it would go away. This week on 2 separate days I had chills, stomach pains, nausea and headache. I was in bed for 12 hours on each day. I've been taking the Letrozole in the morning so I thought that today I will take it at night and see if that makes a difference. Next week I have my Bone density test and then I see the Doc so will discuss further with him.
Be sure they are checking the Bilirubin, which is the enzyme test for the liver, Normal is 1 and I was at 9. That can be very bad, especially if the stones block the pancrease. Have it checked. If it hadn't been caught I could have been one of the walking dead.
