Just saying hello as a new member
I was just recently diagnosed with MBC in January 2024 but no stranger to breast cancer as I had already had a tangle with (what I was assured was a very low risk) breast cancer back in 2014 and underwent surgery for a lumpectomy and a subsequent regimen of 6 1/2 weeks of m-f radiation.

Fulvestrant side effects and updates
After 4yrs of silence and no medications against my oncologist advice, my breast cancer is back. Atleast I was spared from horrible side effects for those times. My 2023 January Ct scan showed mets again in mu lungs, liver and some other areas. It progressed slowly as I was going through so much financial

Is it safe to take antibiotics while on Ibrance and Letrozole?
Good day my fellow warriors! A quick question about taking antibiotics while on Ibrance and Letrozole. I am on vacation right now and unfortunately is experiencing toothache with swollen gums. I’m planning to see a dentist this week to ask for prescription for my swollen gum but not sure if this will

Tamoxifen v Acid Reflux
Hi All I have been clear from hormone related breast cancer for 3 years now. I am 62 & post menapausal . I changed medication from anastrozole to tamoxifen last month to try to help slow my osteopenia, as I do not get on with bisphosphonates. Unfortunately it appears to have aggravated my hiatus

Bad ct scan
Good morning Ladies, Does anyone have any information on pleural fluid in the lung? I’m currently on first line of RX for MBC in lung with faslodex. Scans are showing small pleural fluid and nodules, etc. I’m so scared! Any thoughts? Thanks, Susie

I take 3000 a day and I weigh 135 lbs. My regime is 7 days on and 7 days off. However I started with 3500 and that really affected my hands and they lowered my dosage. I am still having challenges with my hands but it’s not bad. They get extremely dry and crack, so I try to keep them moisturized

Advice? Anyone taking Herceptin Perjeta and Faslodex? And bye Ibrance
Hi everyone. My onc switched me off ibrance and Exemastane bc initial breast tumor is growing and has become resistant to these meds. I knew like all of us here that first line of treatment would end sometime (almost 4 years) but I’m really nervous about this new normal I’m entering into with 3 week

Hi! I'm new and excited to meet others and learn about your journey
Good afternoon. I'm new to the group. I already posted an item, but thought I should introduce myself. I was diagnosed with Stage 1 breast cancer in 2010. Had a mastectomy. Went on tamoxifen for 2 years, then quit because it made me feel miserable. No chemo. In 2022, I was once again diagnosed

exciting clinical trial
My very long time (20 years!) MBC changed from E+ to triple negative a few months ago and yesterday I was looking on line for clinical trials for TNBC and found one that looks exciting to me, whether I qualify for it or not. It's sponsored by Lyell Immunopharma and targets CAR T cells. I have no idea
