Thank you. After being stage 4 and taking arimidex i was stable for 3 years, now I have a walnut size active cancer in my upper right lung again. I dont do well when meds lower my counts. Ibrance sent me into neutropenia, extreme fatigue, stomatitis and pneumonitis to name a few SE's. I hope Kisqale is easier on my body.
