Welcome to the forum Brackers although I'm sorry to hear of the difficulties you're having getting your preferred brand of Letrozole.

I hope you won't experience too many side effects from the one you picked up yesterday and hopefully you will hear back from some of our members who have experience with Amorox soon.

If you'd like to try and find out more about this brand, then do get in touch with our cancer nurses on 0808 800 4040. Their phone lines are open Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m and they'll do all they can to help.

You may also be able to get further information and advice from Breast Cancer Now.

Kind regards,

Hi, Steph.  Thank you very much for your reply.  I am hoping that I get on okay with them and will certainly contact the nurses if I need anymore info.

Thank you. 

Hello Brackers ,that does sound pretty horrible .lets hope you get on better with those .I have been taking the Accord Letrezole since March ,the only side effects I had ,were the achy joints ,but that seems to be easing a bit now .

I do think that there is an alternative you can take if these don’t agree with you . Keep in touch and good luck xx

Thank you, Rumpelstiltskin.  I'm really hoping that these are fine for me.  I'm glad you are getting on with the Accord.  I know it's unrealistic to think we will have the same brand for the next 10 years, but it would be nice :-)  Thank you again and I will keep in touch.  Good luck to you too. xx

Also I had my first year mammogram results today.  All clear, no concerns.  Such a relief. xx

That’s great new Brackers ,onwards and upwards ! I started my first part of reconstructive surgery and feeling great .

Will be able to drive again on Monday . Good luck xx

Hi Rumpelstiltskin,

I am delighted to hear that all is going well for you and that you are getting back to driving again so soon after your op.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx

Thanks Jolamine , all good here .How are you doing ?

Hi Rumpelstiltskin,

I'm ok thank you - just anxiously waiting for the results of my CT scans, but still have a couple of weeks to wait for them.Regards,

Jolamine xx

Waiting is always so awful ,let’s hope it goes well .xxx
