Femara/Letrazole
Hi, anyone on this and have side effects? I’m almost half way through my supposed 5yrs of this and still have various side effects on and off. Nausea, weakness and have fainted a couple of times over ...
I haven't had those side effects but somewhere on here you'll find @arpie has posted a list of published side effects plus what women on the forum have reported. For me, it's severe joint and muscle pain, stiffness, osteo-arthritis, vaginal and skin dryness, hair thinning, and fatigue. Memory problems could be Letrozole or could be post-chemo! I believe that changing meds does improve things for some and Exemestane in particular as it is a steroidal AI so a bit different but others may be able to provide more accurate information.
