Experiences with

Afinitor

I've recently switched to Afinitor & Letrozole. The side effects, joint & muscle pain, of Letrozole are taking a toll. Currently, I take both in the morning with just water. Would taking them both at night help? Or maybe Afinitor in the am and Letrozole in the pm? Any tips appreciated!

Anyone else on this combo or have any experience with Afinitor?? I need some good thoughts... and encuragement! thanks----Carol

Hello, has anyone on Afinitor have pain in there kidneys , It seems my right kidney has shooting pains sometimes. This Thursday I will be getting a Ct scan &MRI. I don't know what they will find this time with my MBC in the liver.

My doctor says I have a few choices, but hasn’t yet described them…I’ve already done Ibrance, tamoxifen, Docetaxol, Afinitor…..she did say awhile ago that I might be able to do Docetaxol again….anyway, any input? Thanks!
