I check in to the discussion board every day, but have not contributed to the discussion for a long time. Have had tests and tests and more tests but so far so good. This probably seems insignificant, but have a question. I have been on femara/letrozole for 2 and 1/2 years and am beginning to lose my taste. Has this happened to anyone on this drug?
Thanks for your help.

    I've been on Femara/letrozole since early Feb., 2010 and haven't had that problem. I did lose sens of taste on A/C but it finally slowly started back after Taxol which I finished late Jan., 2010.

    I wasn't on this. What did
    I wasn't on this. What did your onco say? Is it one of the side effects? Hopefully, you can get some help.
