Hi @CRM. I’m taking Letrozole and also having monthly Zoladex injections. I’m due for one tomorrow actually. I’m 40, that’s why I need the Zoladex with the Let, cos Let can only be taken by post menopausal women and I wasn’t. Im finding the Zoladex very easy to deal with for now. I get occasional hot flushes but they’re short. Other than that I’m ok. But I feel so much better not getting PMS and my period every month. I had very bad PMS symptoms, and 7 day heavy periods with bad cramps, so this is like a holiday for me. The Letrozole has triggered stenosis though, I think, so I have tingly and numb fingers and have pain in my joints after I get up from sitting. But other than that feeling ok, for now.
