EO up

[Clair19]

Hey everyone, had my Faslodex second injections yesterday no pain. My blood work is back to normal except my EO Went from 2.2 to 8.1 in 2 weeks. It was normal before my Faslodex injection. Has anyone else had this with Faslodex? It says infection or sinus can cause increase. Now I’m worried the Faslodex has caused flare ups. I get my next injection in 2 weeks then once a month. Thanks for reading. I hope everyone is doing well.

have onc office check with insurance before scheduling once a month shot- we scheduled a month out only to find out my insurance considers a month at thirty days not 28( which is 4 weeks!)I get my shots next week - will check labs on EO

Okay thanks for that. I was reading that Faslodex causes air way problems. That’s a cause of higher EOSINOPHILIA...

I have 4 cycles of folsadex and have been pretty good. What’s EO? I found a number for eosinophils absolute that is 0.0

That’s it. Yeah mine has been normal for some reason went crazy in 2 weeks. My sister in law who is. Nurse Practitioner said not to worry about that. Is the least one on wbc to worry. Neutrophils yes eosinophilia no, just allergies. But thanks for responding.

Hi , I take Zyrtec one hour before I take the Piqray that helps to not get the Piqray rash . I am also taking the Fulvestrant , but haven't had problems with that, except the lumps it makes, will try to massage with the electric massager someone here suggested and peppermint essential oils , I use coconut oil as a carrier.

My Eosinophils went up to 55 which was very high and I had severe diarrea so had to get off Piqray for a few weeks but am now back on it .

I am taking Aloe Vera juice and a few drops of colloidal silver , that helped stop the diarrea, so I continue to take it. Do you just take Fulvestrant alone ?

I had gained weight from the steroids I was given when on Pacletaxol about 6 months ago . I am now on a very strict low carb diet so as not to get type 2 diabetes , which can be a side effect of Piqray.

I have lost 15 lbs so far and want to lose more to get back to my weight before the Pacletaxol.

Sending the best to you 💗
