Faslodex
Had a horrible reaction this past Monday after my injections. I’ve been having this treatment for 3 years and I had so much pain during the second injection. When I left I felt horrible. BP dropped to 78/56. I almost hit the deck. I experienced nausea, weakness, sweating and coworkers called 911 and

Update
the rash was not shingles . It was just a bad reaction to preservatives in the faslodex injection which was generic. He’s going to go back and order the Faslodex by Astra Zeneca which I had for the first two years and never had a problem. Thank you for all your concern, he gave me absolutely no medication

Faslodex/Fulvestrant update
For those being offered or starting this protocol - here’s an update. I know when I joined this group - it meant a lot to get information and experiences. Faslodex is my second line treatment- after Ibrance, Femara & zoladex. I’ve been feeling well on Faslodex - still going about my daily routine and

So afraid I won’t be able to take the faslodex injections anymore. Bad rash ! What then 😢
Has anyone had to stop due to site rash , what do you go on instead . I’m so scared I’m just gonna die now from the cancer if I can’t take the Faslodex. Crying all the time. I don’t think it is shingles, I think it’s a hives rash . Going tomorrow as an emergency 🆘 to oncologist at 1 pm . Help

FYI, PEACE-1 recommendation validated by second opinion I received yesterday at MD Anderson, Jacksonville, FL
QUESTION: What is the deal with continuing
Casodex
after 30 days have passed from the Eligard shot? It it recommended to stop taking
Casodex
after the flare has passed, or does it depend? Thanks.

Zytiga vs Casodex with Eligard for intermediate risk stage T3a, PSMA negative cancer, post RP (5/21) initial PSA 0.4, currently 0.79
I am curious as to why MO is choosing zytiga over
casodex
even though there is no evidence of metastasis at this time? He is recommending 24 months of ADT and possibly radiation. My father has been reluctant to initiate further treatment but will likely be starting soon.

I'm new here, unfortunately. :)
I immediately was started on
Casodex
until insurance could clear Lupron and Zytiga. One week on
Casodex
seemed to have dramatic improvement in urinary control and reduction in pain in perineum. Doctor doesn't think
Casodex
would act that fast.

Extreme pain in penis
I had a Lupron shot and began
Casodex
in early November, then switched from
Casodex
to Zytiga a week later. A couple of times (days apart) before the treatments began, I had a burning pain in the inside tip of my penis that lasted about 3-5 minutes then went away.

Constant leaky eyes , please help! Suffering for 2 years . I’m on Verzenio, faslodex, and Xgeva. Daily vitamins, any one else ? Remedy plz🙏
My eyes constantly leak either they’re filled with water, or they leak down my face constantly. I am so uncomfortable I can’t figure out which drug is causing it or which supplement is causing it. I’ve taken one out at a time and seen if it stopped and it doesn’t. Has this happened to anybody else and

Help with my nausea
I have been experiencing waves of nausea recently. Switched from letrozole to faslodex 9/2021. Seems to be a little worse in the past 30 days. I spoke with my oncologist whom says it’s just anxiety…….I am not sure about that as it comes randomly and at times that are not anxiety provoking situations.

Nasonex and brown inhaler
Hi, before being given my blue and brown inhaler, I was prescribed Nasonex steroid nasal spray, 2 puffs twice a day. I forgot to ask the Dr if I should carry on with it, now I’m on the brown inhaler daily 🤦♀️ Does anyone know if I should still be using the Nasonex ? Thank you

Mammogram during Stage 4 metastatic ER+ HER2- cancer?
In 2018, I was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer, and had surgery, radiation, and have since been on Faslodex and Ibrance, which work. I have CTs or Skeletals every six months. My gynecolgist thinks I should get a mammogram; my oncologist thinks it's not necessary but will schedule one. ???? Who

Allergy meds
I am in the U.S. and need relief from seasonal allergies. I read an article by an allergist with the Cleveland Clinic. "Decongestants are not recommended for people with hypertension or heart problems. A better option would be a topical nasal steroid like Flonase® (fluticasone), Rhinocort® (budesonide

An Enigma
The issue that I face is a high PSA(146) after Lupron,
Casodex
, Zytiga and Chemo ( Taxotere). I still receive an injection of Trelstar every 3 months and am currently taking the chemo drug Lynparza.

Help with doctors and getting to a plan
She started me on
Casodex
and wants to give me a Lupron shot this week. She also wants me to meet with Dr Tewari and Bobby Liaw of MT Sinai. Additionally she will bring in Dr Shasha of MSK as an RO. Does anyone know of Dr Cheetham, this will be very helpful.

What should I do next ?
I am so discouraged . As if stage 4 wasnt enough . Kaiser Permanente has been worst than horrible . Don't answer calls , or emails , and have left me for 2mths without the treatment they are prescribing . They also missed an appt , should have been more Faslodex shots at 2 wks , but they just didn't

a dilemma...
I started
Casodex
last week ahead of my first Eligard injection next week in anticipation of PSA flare all in an effort to keep me in a sort of flight pattern over this dilemma I have to resolve. Of note prior to surgery I was as regular with bowel functions each day as one can get.
