I have quite a bit of stiffness and pain in joints caused by letrozol.  It does walk off although stairs and inclines are a struggle.  Has anybody tried acupuncture to help  with this?

  • I came on this forum to ask the same question. Hopefully we will both get the answer. 

    I've been looking through a few of the other posts, magnesium and vitamin D are coming up quite frequently as being beneficial.  

  • Hoping to get some feedback.  I have had acupuncture before for joint pain which worked for me but this was not related to cancer treatment. Just wandered as letrozole would be ongoing would acupuncture be of any use

  • Hi I am struggling with leg pains, I’ve been on anastrozole, Exemestane and letrozole - but each one causes the same issues. Letrozole I have settled on as it is only leg pain without any other side effects.  Struggling to be mobile is so frustrating, I would love to know if anyone has found anything that helps? I exercise daily but have to walk through the pain, it’s exhausting.

    due to have steroid injection in hip tomorrow to see if that helps but its not just joint pain the muscles ache too
