That is a long time to go between diagnosis. I'm glad you found this forum. It has truly been a blessing for me. Sometimes its easier to ask a question from people who have had the experience than a medical team that probably hasn't. Although, thank God, we have both. I pray that you will receive get terrific benefits from the Ibrance and you start feeling better soon.

So sorry that you can't get it done sooner. I'm sure it is harder to get scheduled with the holiday coming up. I hope you can find some relief soon. If you get worse please consider the ER. I have not dealt with his but it sounds so very uncomfortable.

I think many people on the site are busy with their 4th of July plans but I am hoping someone that has experienced this give some words of assurance. So glad you are tolerating the ibrance well. That is major!
