It's lovely to see you back on the forum Jas, although I'm sorry to hear about all the health issues you've been contending with. It sounds like it's been very tough and it's completely understandable why you may be feeling more drained and fatigued than before.

I'm sure you will hear back from some of our members soon but if you'd like to find out if there if letrozole can cause issues in the liver then do give our cancer nurses a call on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

I really hope things start to improve for you soon Jas, but when ever you feel like life is getting you down, just remember that we will always be here for you.

Kind regards,

Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator

Ahh thanks for the lovely reply Steph,  it's much appreciated.  I have actually googled about my liver problems, and it seems a lot if my treatments have contributed to this. It says  that  chemotherapy, and aromatase inhibitors ( which is whst letrazole is) and low estrogen levels ,which the letrazole reduces,,and radiotherapy can all cause fatty liver and liver problems.  So as I don't eat any sugar ( apart from Whats in my food allready) and eat all low fat  foods,don't drink alcohol  very rarely do I have an acholic drink,I didnt even have one at Christmas lol. So I csnt see it's my diet that's caused it. My gp said to diet as if i am over weight,which I amas dont do as mich as i used to ftom feelimgtiredall the time. ( Another side effect of having a fatty liver) cant win lol, but,I am eating less scince  bring diognosed  to try to help it. I did used to put a lot of salt on ny food, and dont now. 

I've also read fatty liver can cause pain in your right shoulder and neck, and I've got problems there too,Impingement and inflammation and atheritus I'm my right shoulder, and on my left side my collar bone and my neck have inflammation due to atheritus.  But I just get on with things and still am glad fir every second of every day I have on this earth,life is precious.  I have another blood test  sheduled for April 18th to check on my liver . Also waiting to find out if I'll have to go on medication scince my last dexter scan.  So a lot going on ,but there is always someone worse than you,so my motto is it is whst it is,and you just git to keep on going and enjoying life the  best that you can. Xx
