It's over a year later and the problem still has gone away. I'm on a new med now and bad side effects but nothing like the letrozole.

Letrozole kicked my butt! Hip, lower back pain, mood swings, so we switched to Anastrozole. All pains above fairly contained with big doses of Motrin, but my THUMBS!! omg. Yesterday saw the Ortho Surgeon, who gave me shots in my thumbs, and said I’m a good candidate for “thumb joint replacement” surgery—recovery 9-12 months, very painful. I want to quit all the drugs. Anyone know statistically how likely a 71 yo is to get cancer again if I just DO NOTHING?!
