Hormone therapy and tendon issues

Well it has  been 4 months including 6 weeks of physio and daily stretching exercises and my tennis elbow is still dreadful.I can’t recall any significant event that initiated it but am starting to think hormone therapy may be the culprit as have read members on her discussing carpal tunnel , trigger thumb and other tendon related issues.

Anyway I found this newish article on the subject and thought may be of interest.Just curious is anyone else out there experiencing similar ?I am weighing up revisiting my GP who probably will suggest cortisone injection for pain relief or visiting my oncologist and suggesting a MRI.Btw I take Sandoz brand Letrozole .I include the brand as I still believe fillers and coatings impact on our well being .I have been on Letrozole since 8/17 and I would have said managing ok until now.
