Hormone therapy!
Afternoon Has anybody had a good response from letrozole? Unfortunately I’m still deemed inoperable due to too much “peppering” on small Bowels after investigative laparoscopy, so after 6 course of chemo for my low grade stage 3C we move onto hormone therapy. Any info would be welcomed on how they’

verzenio or aromatase inhibitors
I was diagnosed in April 2017 at stage 4 breast cancer. Started on tamoxifen and then switched to anastrozole in March 2018. Cancer is now progressing so doctor wants me to switch to verzenio with faslodex depending on whether I get the financing for the new drug verzenio. I thought I would be going

Staying alive
Hello, I am new here. I found this forum when I started Ibrance. I have been on it almost 3 weeks in addition to faslodex. Before this, my cancer had stayed back with letrozole since 2014. I originally had BC in 2001 and it came back in the other boob in 2013. I started Mets last year. I have it

Anywhere to get discount for Ibrance?
I am just diagnosed of MBC to lymph node and starting on letrozole and Ibrance. My problem is the pharmacy who is responsible in shipping my Ibrance was trying to delay the ibrance for many days. I have a good health insurance BCBS. Anybody with Bluecross blue shield ppo? How about a co-pay discount

Done with the ablation
Sitting here at the end of my 6 hour bed rest and I’m feeling ectopics. Did anyone’s ablation prevent ectopics from recurring?

Would like to connect with others who are on Aromasin for Her2 Estrogen+ Stage 2 breast cancer.
I'd like to hear about your experience since you've been on aromasin. How many years are you expected to take it? Are you also having vaginal infections from aromasin? What are your side effects? It's been 2 years. Couldn't tolerate arimadex at all!

Verzenio vs Ibrance?
First time posting, glad to find you! Does anyone have experience with the CDK 4/6 inhibitor abemiciclib (Verzenio)? I just started Faslodex for recurring liver mets after 14 months on Letrozole. May start Verzenio or Ibrance next month. Thanks!

Survivor guilt
One of my relative was diagnosed with her2+ Metastatic breast cancer with cancer spread to liver and lungs. She was advised 6 cycles of taxol+carboplatin + herceptin + Perjeta, followed by herceptin and perjeta until progression. But, as she didn’t have insurance, she refused to take this treatment,

Different metastasis tumors
Has anybody got this or heard of this? So I went to my onc today. I’m only on my second cycle of ibrance and letrozole. The appointment was going well. Just asking about any pains, anything new. I told him I couldn’t really tell any difference since taking the ibrance. I am still having pains in my breast

New to MBC, diagnosed early December, conflict with original oncologist. Now with one I have all the confidence in.
Went through bc and mastectomy in2003 and 2008. Fine till Mar of 2018. Thought all through 2018 needed hip replacement. Wrong MRI and all other show widespread cancer in bones, connect the dot type in spine, hips and skull. Luckily not in organs. Waiting on radiologist eval, and waiting to start Verzenio

CLL is no longer dormant
I live in Hamilton and being followed by a Hematologist at Mc Master. I have had my condition for 8 years and have never had a risk assessment. I had another blood test done and I am seeing my specialist Tuesday. This last year has not been so good . Should I request a Fish test, CT scan etc or what
