Bloodwork

[Choco2]

I recently had bloodwork done and my kidney functioning is very low and it's never ever been low...I have to go back for bloodwork again on 4/26...has anyone else experienced this being on Verzenio? I've been on it a year im so scared

I have had high BUN and Creatinine numbers. I have to drink all the time and they come down. I have a small Blender and make drinks my favorite is diet cranberry juice and orange juice with some flax and chia seed mix and ice to make a smoothie. Diet soda, pineapple juice smoothie and iced tea keep me hydrated. Or I get an IV hydration when I am high no thank you!

Of course there is water and sports drinks.

A straw can help. Best drinking. I also keep a drink by my bed

Cranberry pills help with bladder control. It’s an easy fix for me Good luck. Reenie

Yes!!! Flush out the kidneys Rbeth , you’re exactly right!! This is what my doctors told me to do and it works. I drink beet juice and it seems to help too.

I'm a long timer with MBC, 20 years last month! I've not been on Verzenio but I have had errors in blood work a couple of times. If you develop symptoms, oe side effects, call your onc or go to the ER. Don't wait ubtil 4/26 if something worsens. I hope this is just a fluke!

Wowow 20 yrs?? That's great!! Well I haven't developed any symptoms I'm drinking 50 to 70 oz of water daily. I'm praying and believing the Verzenio is giving false numbers....

hi, I’m taking Ibrance which is similar in mechanism with Vernezio. After a year my renal function start worsening and now (4 years of treatment) is really low. Went on the multiple consultations with nephrologists and urologists. Nothing is really identified as a reason.

Do you know what the reason for worsening of the renal function for you?

How are you feeling?

Wishing you all the best!
