Forum Discussion
I was diagnosed January 2020 had lumpectomy then radiation. Now been on letrozole for 7 months. I had no idea until coming on here that what I have been feeling is a side effect of this drug. I feel like I have the body of an old lady aches, pains & stiffness to most of my body not to mention I perspire 99% of the day. In one way it has made me feel better cause it’s obviously very common.
@arpie it took me awhile to figure out what your magic oil was haha & glad it helps I might need some I think. Will have to look into tart cherry @Leia. I’m willing to give anything a go.
My surgeon told me I didn’t need to see my oncologist again as he is only a radiation oncologist & he would look after me. Is this normal? He also said he would have put me on tamoxifen & not letrozole. I’m feeling kind of scared & not sure what to think. Had my first post bc tests today so freaking out it has come back but trying to stay positive.

Good luck with it all @Jessiemydog hopefully your side effects will be minimal but we gotta do anything to try to avoid this shitty cancer coming back x
