Letrozole/Femara
I have just been put on Letrozole as am unable to tolerate Tamoxifen. One thing I have noticed is that I am extremely short of breath all the time and even worse when I actually do any activity. I feel as if I am not getting enough oxygen. Oncologist said this is uncommon, but then again they tried to tell me that my horrendous side effects with tamoxifen where uncommon also! Having held down a full time job whilst going through 16 cycles of chemo and all my radiation treatments I am certainly not someone who doesnt give up easily with a little pain.
Am just wondering if anyone else here has experienced this shortness of breath and if it eventually went away.
Oncologist is sending me for a full lung function test and an echo as well but just thought i would see if there is anyone out there with this problem
