I had my appointment with the new Oncologist,, I..like her she listens and actually checked my body lol. So in the 2 cycles of taking Ibrance/Letrozole it did more harm than good so she wants to start me on Gemzar , she agreed with me that Doxil is too harsh. My other Oncologist wanted to start me on Doxil. Have anyone ever heard of Gemzar or have taken it? I still on thr fence about taking anymore treatments. Please give feedback on Gemzar.

I’m so glad you met with a new oncologist and she definitely sounds better than the last one!!! I’ve never tried Gemzar but it’s got to be better for you than the Ibrance. I’m so happy that you have some hope now. I’m sure the people on here will give you some good feedback!!!
I assume you had progression? Ma may I ask what happened?
I recommend that you Google geezer for information and that you download The Insiders Guide to Metastatic Breast Cancer by Anne Loesser - it's free. You can also purchase a hardcopy from Amazon. It is well written well-researced and written by a woman with MBC.
CONGRATULATIONS to you for taking care of yourself.
Wishing you the best possible outcomes and sorry that you need a new treatment. It is news none of us want to hear.
