I was wondering if the letro was causing my headaches. I looked up the side effects and found other side effects that I had to taking this. I've taking letro now for 16 weeks at .25mg ed. Here's a list of some side effects. The ones in bold letters are what I've had on this cycle for sure.

hives
difficulty breathing
swelling of your face
swelling of lips
swelling of tongue
swelling of throat
hot flashes, warmth or redness in your face or chest
headache, muscle or joint pain
night sweats
weight gain
fatigue, feeling weak
nausea
swelling in your hands, ankles, or feet

Think it's time for me to switch over to Nolv...
And, I've heard that Nolv is hard on your liver... so, what else is there?

Well ofcorce theres armidex , not sure if it would be the same for your cycle but I'v heard that .25 ed letro is too much and that it should be run eod.
From my memery If i'm correct on this , what u run I can see why u would use more tho.

I have been using arimidex at a similar dose, .25mg ed for eight weeks then .5mg ed for the next three, I have been running into joint pain. Your sides seem a bit more severe, I would probably cut it back, though as a counterpoint, your dose is 1/10th what they give women with breast cancer, and those women get it every day, for years at a time. Could it be something else triggering these sides?

Bm... I'm only down to the the cyp I made and the letro. I had a lot of problems this cycle and none on the last cycle. Last cycle I took nolva for half of it then letro eod for the rest but was fighting a gyno issue the whole time back then. So, i went ed this time and have been getting these headaches for weeks now... when my throat was closing down I was maxed out on gear so it could be a combination of things... just funny that it list this side on the letro.

I still have the throat choking feeling when I lay down certain ways and still have a hard time breathing. Doc gave me prednisone 20mg to help both of these side. Thought the hard breathing was from the flu but I much better now and still have a problem

I get off of it and hit the nolva to see if it makes a difference... I'll keep my test the same to document any noticable changes. After taking a break from it I'll try it again at half of the .25mg dose I've been taking. Can't do an eod thing cause I'll forget and loose track. I looked up the sides for Arimidex and I'd rather have the sides I have now... I think or maybe I'll try a cycle of Arimidex cause every body reacts differently.
