Hi update with metatistic b/c i am now going on Letrozole i have heard about the side effects but what choice do i have as there is no cure at the moment, please god willing this helps and i get through side effects !
Hi, Hellsbells, I have been taking Letrozole for 3 months now (for pelvic cancer). The only side effect I have had is a huge appetite! After taking it for one month a scan showed that my main tumour had shrunk by a half, so good news. I have incurable peritoneal cancer so am hoping that the Letrozole will help with that too.
I realy hope that you benefit from this drug, most people tolerate it and do well with it. Best wishes. x
Thanks for your reply, im interested if your c had spread or is it just in one area, mine began in breast 2011 and then came back at xmas 2014 and spread to a few places although chemo has shrunk and to the naked eye has dissapeared its still in my breast, hoping that Letrozole helps me further hope you are well thanks again for your reply

Hi, I hadnt been feeling well for about a wek but put it down to the worsening of the cancer, but having read your bit about side effects I went onto the NHS webpage and realised I had quite a few of the side effects - breathing problems, diarrhea/constipation, bloating, nausea etc. I have 2 weeks before I go back to the hospital so will discuss it then. I don't think there is any alternative for me so I may not have a choice. Of course, for every person who gets side effects there will be someone who gets nothing, Please God, you do well on it. Let us know. x
