No benefit of chemo for ER+HER2- invasive lobular beyond estrogen therapy
Just found this in the digest I get of medical journal articles (MD Edge): Women with estrogen receptor (ER)–positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)–negative invasive lobular carcinoma who are treated with endocrine therapy do not derive any additional survival benefit from neoadjuvant

walnuts
hello, I’m post breast cancer treatment and on tamoxifen. There’s been a bit of thyroxine wobbling as I started that so being monitored. I’m eating more nuts, particularly / including walnuts (good for Bc) for extra protein as I’m exercising and lifting weights. how long would you wait before

reduced doseage of ibrance
Hi, I saw my oncologist yesterday and she reduced my ibrance from 125 to 100 mg. This makes me very nervous, though she says there should be no reduction in effectiveness . Has anybody had this happen and what were the results? Did the smaller dose still work for you? I have been on ibrance and letrozole

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

Verzenio
I have stage 3 lobular cancer. So far had surgery, radiation and currently on Letrozole. I am considered high risk. Did not do chemo because it is not always effective with lobular cancer. Oncologist wants to put me on Verzenio but I am reluctant due to side effects. I am 68 and a full time teacher and

Tirosint
Its been 10.5 months since my thyroidectomy. I was at .69 TSH on levothyroxine 100 mgs a day with mega side effects. Doctors just switched me Tirosint 88 mgs a day. Am I to expect more serious changes, again. I lost my voice, got chubby, lost hair, aged, and more. Its been a life-changing experience

AST, ALT high
Hi, while been on Interferon journey my AST and ALT rocketed up high to 64 for ast and 92 for alt.Is this change a concern ? How can I maintain liver enzymes ? I am on a low carb high fat diet but I am using all the healthy ingredients. Not sure if related. Haematologist doesn't seem worry about that
