Hello all,
For anyone still following this thread — I did end up trying a short course of Lexapro (I’m an integrative psychotherapist, so although I’m not a big a big psychopharmaceuticals fan, I have a good sense of what these drugs can and cannot do). Low dose Lexapro didn’t help my sleep or general anxiety so I weaned off, but I’ve been getting better quality sleep by taking Ashwagandha (Gaia brand) and magnesium an hour or two before bed, and then a low dose of melatonin (2.5mg) an hour before. I wear an Oura ring (3 years now) so it tracks sleep quality — much more REM sleep!
Just did a DEXA scan after 18 months on Letrozole and my lumber spine is now -3.99, alas. Considering what awful bone drugs to try (have to do something) and maybe going off Letrozole.
I’d be glad to hear other thoughts/experiences any of you might like to share!

@risagee I'm older (72), stage 1 ILC & I'm taking a half-dose (10 mg) of Tamoxifen which hopefully protects my bones & I have no side effects. I've also started 5 classes/week of Pilates since diagnosis last August. Hope you find a plan that works for you!
