If one year since chemo I am assuming 1 year on AI's. Has this pain just started in last month?
Has anything else changed like your weight or major joint changes?
It could be lots of things. My AIs were a problem from the start then improved somewhat, however with weight gain my joints really became an issue. Swapping from letrozole to anastrozole helped, and losing weight and more activity has helped even more.
Sometimes you just need to talk with your GP. I started with basic bloods to ensure I didn't have inflammatory arthritis.
An exercise class might help with your joints and mental health also.
