I am sorry you had such a bad Charley horse from that med. I have been on Letrozole since last November. It has caused bad joint pain and a trigger thumb that I will be having surgery on. I was going to try another one but am afraid of what it may cause. The one you said caused you such pain, I had heard from someone else they did better on. I guess it is individual how people respond. I use a frankincense salve that has helped my knees som. My hands are still very stiff and painful. Best of luck to all facing these issues.

Best of luck to you with your surgery! I have had trigger finger too while on the letrozole. And I have heard too that some ppl seem to do better on the exemestane. Please take care, and thank you for supporting my question. xo
