Side effects of Letrozole

Hi,

I am struggling since starting on Letrozole. My moods have become dark and the change in my state of mind is frightening. I have always been a happy, positive person, and now I feel rock bottom, straight lining. 

Have any other ladies experienced depression as a side effect of taking this drug? I am considering stopping    The medication.

please can anyone give me hope that the side effects will subside.

thank you.

  • Hi Sally

    so glad to hear that you are fine 15 years on. Do you mind me asking how old you were when you were diagnosed and why did you stop taking the Letrozole?
