Question for Femara/Letrozole Users

Hi ladies,
I just stopped my last of 5 pills (2.5mg) of femara/letrozole, and I was wondering if any of you experienced skin pain after taking it. I can't remember if I had it last cycle or not. It hurts to touch the backs of my upper arms, shoulders, hips, and thighs. It's almost like a bruise covering my whole skin. I also just came off of taking prednisone (steroid) for a sinus issue, so I'm wondering if that could be causing it as well.
I plan on going to the urgent care again today to see what's up with my cold/sinus issues I'm still having, so I will be sure to tell them about the pain...just curious if it's a common s/e with femara. Google didn't really help much lol.
TIA!
