Aches and Pains Still

Hi SusiQ.

Thanks for your post.  Sorry about your aches and pains. 

I think Letrozole can cause aches and pains and fatigue. Also, as you had radiotherapy,  that can also cause aches and stiffness later. Have you spoken with your Dr/Oncologist about this?

I have been taking Letrozole  since December. I have experienced quite debilitating severe joint pains, fatigue and low mood with it. I also have an achy and stiff shoulder from radiotherapy. 

After discussion with my oncologist,  I'm currently on a break from Letrozole after which I will move to Anastrozole. I've also had scans to rule out metastasis.  I'm looking at diet and nutrition to support my bones whilst taking  aromatose inhibitors. I'm only six months into my 5yrs!

I would ask for a review with your oncologist to explore your options.

I'm not sure of your location but if you're able to get to London. Future Dreams offer some really useful workshops, classes and therapies.

I hope that you get some relief soon.

Hugs, Shaka
