Afinitor or clinical trial
But it may be irrelevant if I just choose to go on
afinitor
. I have not heard the best things about
afinitor
so that makes me lean toward the clinical trial but it is really up in the air until I get more information. If any of you have any thoughts for me on that, I would appreciate hearing them.

Update on barb
10 mg dose of
Afinitor
( why I don’t really understand but was the same with Ibrance) I gather the exemastane is similar to letrazole so I’m not too concerned with that drug...it’s the other one ugh!!

6 weeks on Afinitor
Hi ladies Well I’ve done over 6 weeks on my new meds...
Afinitor
and exemastane...no ulcers for which I’m grateful but I’m now feeling so weak so I texted my oncologist today requesting the 7.5 mg dose instead of 10mg and she’s agreed...hopefully I’ll perk up!!

Bacterial pneumonia with mbc?
On
Afinitor
and Exemestane. No energy. Feeling so helpless and a bit scared. Didnt know cancer patients are at high risk for pnuemonia. Heading to doctor tomorrow to see what they suggest next.

First CT scan tomorrow after starting new treatment
After ibrance and faslodex stopped working in the summer, and
afinitor
and exemestane didn't work for me, the oncologist thinks that the cancer is now hormone negative, though the bones remained stable. I was accepted on a trial for cabazitaxel in January.

Cabazitaxel
Finally got my scan results today and unfortunately the
afinitor
hasn't done it's job. Bone mets are still stable, no new mets but the liver met has increased in size and there is possible lung damage. Oncologist is adamant that my next treatment has to be intravenous chemo.

Afinitor and Aromasin
My meds arrive today. I am really nervous about starting them. So what time of day is best to take them, morning or evening? I don't want to be up all night if I have nausea and diarrhea. Any suggestions would be so helpful.

10 day suspension of afinitor
I was just getting to grips with
afinitor
and exemestane then I caught a cold. The cold went pretty quickly but left me with sinus issues and a persistent cough. I also had cold sores on my lips and in my nose, the virus retreated but the sores just won't heal.

Afinitor broke me
Hoping that this will all correct itself once the
afinitor
is out of my system, could take 2 weeks. Lisa

Afinitor and blood sugar
Today is day 9 on
Afinitor
and Aromasin. I had previously been on Ibrance and it stopped working. Other than a few mouth sores, nausea, and some serious fatigue, the
Afinitor
seemed to be working.

Afinitor 10mg and exemestane 25mg
I've just done my first 4 weeks on this drug combination after 18 cycles of ibrance 125mg and faslodex. Not to pull punches it's been quite an awful month.

Side effects of Afinitor and Aromasin.
I am 2 weeks in and the side effects have started. I am getting mouth sores, my face is breaking out and will turn beet red and extremely dry. I bought cream at the center that I used during radiation. I have the most horrible taste in my mouth because of the mouthwash. The fatigue is a bit more too.

Foundation one genomic testing
So mine matched
Afinitor
, I cannot take as I had bad reaction. The other one the found was IV chemo with Gemzar. So I will be starting chemo Jan 6 it will be three weeks on one week off. I hope it works as we have tried several cocktails that did not.

Afinitor 10mg and exemestane 25mg update
Thank you to everyone who responded to my previous post and gave me loads of really useful information. It real made me feel that the situation wasn't as hopeless as it felt. I've also had a break through of my own that I wanted to share with you just in case it works for someone else. I've done my first

Afinitor & Exemestance now what?
That is why I was switched to the
Afinitor
& Exemestance. But with these markers I am worried. If she decides to switch my meds I do not know what would be next. Lisa

Afinitor and diabetes and other questions.
She wants to move me to
afinitor
and aromasin. I am diabetic and worry that the
afinitor
will mess with my blood sugar. Anyone have any experience with this? Also, as always, I am terrified of the cost. I am lucky, have good insurance, but meds are so costly! My Ibrance was free.

Everolimus - Afinitor dosage
I have a quick question for anyone on
Afinitor
( everolimus)... I started 10 days ago after Ibrance stopped working. I have noticed that whilst I have been given a 5mg dose the recommended dose is 10mg... Did anyone else start on 5mg? Many thanks.

change in meds to afinitor & exemestance
They met before I was seen today, and decided to switch me to
Afinitor
5mg and Exemestance 25 mg. My new Onc says that depending on how I do on the
Afinitor
5mg, the dose might be increased to 10mg in the future. She will also give me a mouthwash to help avoid mouth sores.
