Hi Kezzagal​ 

I was on Letrozole for 5 years. The only side effect was on my bone density. Since coming off it in December I have experienced weight gain. I am not sure if this is common and will speak to my Dr about it. 
Best of luck for your surgery.

    Thank you Vicvic, I'm pleased you have tolerated the Letrozole fairly well and you are now off it! I hope I have minimal side effects too as I've read some concerning stories! I'll take each day as it comes 🩷🤞🙏
