What Causes Blood In Urine While On Letrozole?
I am on letrozole following surgery and radiation for breast cancer per Duke Cancer Center. Started on Sept 28. Tonight I saw blood in my urine. I have a stitch type discomfort in my left waist area which started about the same time as the medicine. Help! I am a retired RN Case Manager.
