Ulcerative colitis

Hi, I was diagnosed with metastatic BC in July of this year. I have had ulcerative colitis for 2 years and finally under control with Entivyo infusions every 8 weeks. So far no diarrhea on Ibrance, but occasionally loose stools. Just wondering if there is anyone out there with ulcerative colitis on Ibrance and what your experience has been.

Following this because I am looking for info for my mother’s condition. She is in Ibrance and her UC is horrible. Her cancer is under control, but her UC is affecting her quality of life so much. Pain, fatigue, weakness, cramps, etc. , and I think cognitive effects from perhaps weakness/fatigue and pain...?

However, she just re-started doing daily dose of her UC medication via enemas. She says it’s inconvenient for sure, but seems to help more than the oral med. She mentioned that she’s had two days in a row without horrible cramps, which she has had daily for months and months. Consequently she’s had energy and felt much better.

Sorry I don’t know more about med names or dosages... I’m trying to get up to speed on the relationship between her stage IV breast cancer Tx and UC (if any).
