I was on Letrozole for 6 months and Onc could see I was struggling from the start but he asked me to persist with time to see if it settled. No it didn't and he changed me to Aromasin, my third AI.
When I first met my Breast Surgeon, Mammogram ultrasound and straight to surgeon, he delivered my diagnosis and the comment that you will be my patient for the next 10 years.

It's a hard road that we all travel!
Hope that you get some peace whilst on the break from Letrozole and that your next appointment sorts out where you are at, bursitis is treated and some sense of I am back on an even keel here and I don't hurt like I did! Believe me I know what that's about!
Take care and whinge away
