Hi Mitch 24,

A very warm welcome to our forum.

There are some horror stories about Letrozole, but some people sail through treatment. Unfortunately, I wasn't one of them, but it has worked so far. I have had 2 bouts of breast cancer. The first was 15 years ago and then again the following year. Would I take it again? - yes certainly. Cancer feeds on Oestrogen and Letrozole helps to lower the levels of Oestrogen in the body, which slows the growth of certain cancers. Many of us are nervous about taking this, in case of side-effects, but if you don't try it, you'll never know how you'll react. I am not a doctor and I suspect that this is why your surgeon has left it to you to decide when you're ready to start, but, the sooner you start it, the sooner you start fighting this disease.

Please keep in touch and let us know how you get on. We are always here for you.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx
