Breast Cancer, Adjuvant
"My 6 months on Letrazole have been a nightmare; extreme hot flushes, soaked clothes /bedclothes. Can&#039;t fall asleep even though exhausted. So fuzzy-brained I despair &amp; have lost confidence in normal conversation. Bone pain &amp; frequent lower leg cramps are excruciating. I&#039;ve aged 10 years, changed shape, gained over 10k, all of it around my waist. I fall; I&#039;ve sprained both ankles in six weeks. I never know when a fall is coming, there&#039;s no warning, I just collapse. In  addition to normal drugs regime, I now need 5 additional drugs to try &amp; counteract side-effects of Letrazole. It may be keeping me alive (who really knows?) but it&#039;s destroyed my life in the process. I dread to think what 4.5 more years on this drug will do to me."
