NCI update and pain in fingers
Separately, been on
afinitor
and exastamene a month. In the past 2 weeks, I wake in the morning with my left hand fingers cramped. It’s painful and feels swollen but there is no swelling. Google tells me it’s arthritis but I’m convinced it’s linked to my meds.

Sometimes cold sores drive me up the wall
I have been on
Afinitor
and Exemestane for a couple months and herbal supplements for alternative treatment. I have developed cold sores in my mouth. I have used all the usual over the counter things to help with the discomfort.

Trial; second opinion
After the scan showing Ibrance didn’t work after 4 months, my onco is putting me on exastamene and
afinitor
. At the appointment, they said they didn’t see a trial that I was eligible. I had mixed feelings on that like “trial? Why trial?” To “how can there not be a trial?

Herbal Supplements helpful ?
I am currently switching from Ibrance/letrozole to
Afinitor
/Exemastane. But i was introduced to some herbal supplements. I want to entertain trying it all together but i am not sure if my oncologist will be on board?

Xeloda side effects
Hi fellow metsters, My tumor markers are up, so doc is taking me
afinitor
and aromasin. I start Xeloda in one week. I know the side effects can be bad, like hand and foot syndrome. Any advice or suggestions? Thank you, Sue

Afinitor side effects
So anyway the plan is to stay off of
Afinitor
until next week and as long as breathing and everything clears up start it again every other day and same dose and see if it was virous or reaction to
Afinitor
. Has anyone had similar experience with
Afinitor
? A little nervous to start it again.

Chemo as a "reset"
I am currently on
Afinitor
/Aromasin. At my monthly visit on Friday, I was shocked when my onc suggested that it would be a good time to repeat chemo. She said she likes to periodically repeat the chemo to "reset things".

Exemastane and Afinitor
Dr and I are looking at my options and are leaning toward Exemastane again with
Afinitor
adding the
Afinitor
May get the exemastane to work again. My question is has anyone here been on this combination and how were side effects and outcome.

Aches, pains on Ibrance + Letrozole
I didn’t have this with Xeloda or
Afinitor
. Has anyone out there experienced this bizarre achiness and pain? Do you use cream on the areas and pain meds? That’s what I’ve been doing, but it’s so aggravating! Thanks for any info on this condition. Kats2

Changed from Ibrance to Afinitor
Now I am on
Afinitor
and Aromasin. I was doing so good on Ibrance, I really hated to start a whole new drug path after only 3 months. Has anyone had a similar situation?

Reliability of PET Scan/cancer antigen tests?
My Dr said this proves the Ibrance was not working and suggested changing me to
Afinitor
/ Aromasin. Which is the more reliable diagnostic tool? PET scan or blood tests? Should we give the Ibance more time before making a change?

Starting Ibrance and Letrazole next week
I have had many chemos prior to
Afinitor
and wonding if there is anyone else who may be like me and found Ibrance to work for them. It seems like people who start Ibrance and only have a short amount of time do well on
Afinitor
and vice versa. So I am a bit nervous... Thanks, Mary

Metastatic and moving forward
I am currently on
Afinitor
, Faslodex and have added CBD oil (medical marijuana) and other essential oils to my daily meds. I am not in much pain and am able to function quite normally. I treat this as a chronic disease and don't let it stop me from doing anything.
