I experienced an increase in the severity of my neuropathy while in Letrozole. I took a break for 3 weeks and it did help. The neuropathy in my feet got better. I’ve been taking Letrozole again for a little over a month and my neuropathy is ok. My oncologist didn’t think there was a correlation but I believe there is.

There absolutely is a link to peripheral neuropathy being caused by A.I.s !!!! I started getting pain and numbness in my toes and told my PCP. She immediately said I must have diabetes. The blood tests showed that I don't. My medication list was right in front of her! It is Tamoxifen. If you Google either Letrozole or Tamoxifen, causing peripheral neuropathy, there it is! Now it is in my fingers. I have only known for 3 weeks. I am now looking into data regarding long term effects. Anyone with information on this?
