Letrozole

Hi all,

I was diagnosed with Stage 3 Breast Cancer on the 23rd December 2015, after my first Mammogram, at the age of 51. After undergoing 2 operations, Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy, I am now on hormonal treatments, and this is why I am posting :)

The first one I was on for a year, Anatrozole, but caused me no end of problems. In short my body felt like I was 90 years old x lol x So my Oncologist changed me on to Letrozole. These are fine, no 90 year old woman feeling, however, I seem to suffer from anxiety, something I’ve never had before. I honestly think it’s Letrozole that’s causing this. Has anyone else experienced this with these tablets, or am I crazy? x lol x Thanks :)

Hi Brendie,
From what I’ve seen here, certainly there are others who have felt as you do. 
It maybe an idea to post in ‘hormone therapy’ in the ‘going through treatment’ board, as this part of the forum is quieter.
