Verzenio
Good morning all. Can any of you verzenio gals tell me what to expect before starting this new drug? I am currently on Ibrance/Letrazole and now have an increase in size of two liver lesions found on CT. Pleural effusion now small compared to large and no lymph node involvement seen. I had a steady

Chemo Resistance?
Resistant to Paclitaxel? I have been receiving weekly doses of this taxol and built up a resistance and am now also on Avastin that is administered every 3rd week. The difference in cost is incredible! Has anyone else been through this? I suppose it happens on the other chemo drugs as well. Just when

Xeloda success story!
Just wanted to share some good news - I got back blood lab results and, after just three 7-day rounds of Xeloda, my CA 15-3 marker dropped over 200 points! This is the first big drop since it starting creeping upward last fall, then really jumped in May, along with increased liver mets. I was given

Afinitor : very tough side effects. Any1 else on this oral drug?
Hello. I have been a contributor to Healthunlocked since 2017. Have had MBC (diagnosed) since late 2016 I have been through Ibrance which worked for 5 months. It got rid of a liver met which I will always be grateful for. However, bone Mets went crazy. So Onc put me back on infusion with Eribulin. You

Breast cancer stage 4 treatment continues
My wife is suffering from metastatic breast cancer stage 4. Her treatment from 1st week of May 2018. After 8 cycles of chemo drugs she is treated with Hertraz and Capicet. Pet scans done in March and June 2019 shows that there is no cancerous evidence. I want to know that how long she can survive. Can

Routine Mammogram FEARS
I have a routine mammogram tomorrow. I have been swimming in a fear loop for about two weeks. To the point that I have manifested pain in my breasts. I also need a sonogram because I have dense breasts. We are all worth the effort to live in the present moment but I just can’t seem to get there.

Good news!
My mum has had 2 rounds of weekly taxol so far and has a 3 weekly herceptin injection. She will have 12 weekly taxols. She has 4 small spots on her liver and had her first tumour marker blood results back on Tuesday and it’s already dropped 100 marks just after 1 treatment in 1 week! 😄

Hi - I'm new here
I've been poking around here for a couple of weeks and decided it was time to jump in. Diagnosed in 2008 - right after my 50th birthday - with stage 3 breast cancer. Bilateral mastectomy, removal of most lymph nodes on affected side, lots of heavy chemo & radiation. All stayed quiet on Letrozole until

Liver biopsy results
So my mum got her liver biopsy results from her oncologist yesterday it is breast cancer like her thought as we did too! Anyways it’s still er positive with her 2 expression so he’s decided to go ahead with weekly taxol and hercepten. But she also has HETEROGENEITY which means not all her cancer cells

Mom detected with invasive ductal carcinoma
First when my mom told me about the lump, I took her for checkup followed by mammography appointment and FNAC test which created suspicion for cancer. Next was going to a surgeon for removal and during that procedure there was a frozen section report which confirmed cancer (Invasive ductal carcinoma)

There are some interesting drugs and clinical trials described below for MBC patients with HER2 positive or "HER2 low" disease (meaning that the patient is officially HER2 negative but has a HER2 IHC score of +1 or +2).
