Need Advice, numbness on right side of body...

Hi Everyone,

Its been a while since I lasted posted. I need everyone’s advice and knowledge. I have been on 125 Ibrance, Faslodex injections monthly, and Zometa infusions monthly since October of last year. Scans have showed the meds are working and tumors in my spine have calcified over. However, I have developed numbness on the my right side (foot, hand, and now my face). My doctor stopped the Zometa last month to see if that was the issue but its still progressing. Has anyone gone through this?

Thanks!

No sorry I am only on Ibrance and letrozole and not experienced this at all. I do hope you get a resolution

My response might not be so positive. The numbness down my side into my foot was a tumor pressing on a nerve in my back. Radiation took care of it. I'm sorry if this turns out to be your case as well. However! The radiation worked wonders. kristine

My only spot for numbness was near my right hip joint on the side. This was due to the Faslodex injection hitting a nerve. It didn't get any worse but was there for a LONG time. Now that I have been off of it the numb area is subsiding. Sorry, this probably is not much help in your condition.

😟I wish you the best in finding out the cause.
