Hey, edwendt! Kudos to you for doing your best at protecting yourself, even through non-positive side effects! 1st, each person's body will likely react differently to any drug, so remember that your experience may not be exactly like mine. I took Letrazole for 5 years after lumpectomy and radiation. It made me nauseous, also. I finally found 2 things to be true for me: 1st, if I took it before bed, on a full stomach, the nausea was much dimmenished. 2nd, after a period of time (couple of weeks, maybe?) the nausea seemed to lessen and go away. I encourage you to continue to do the best you can, and to seek help if it becomes too much. Hugs and best wishes to you on your journey!! God bless you!!

Hi @heatl1, I wanted to pop in to say "welcome". Such great tips for others dealing with letrozole and nausea.

I look forward to getting to know you. It sounds like you might be finished with treatment. When were treatments done for you? How are you doing now?
