Afinitor (everolimus) with Faslodex (fulvestrant) combo
I’ve seen a lot of posts mentioning the Everolimus in combo with
Exemestane
but not Everolimus in combo with Faslodex. Has anyone taken this combo and if so, are you on 10mg for Fulvestrant? Can you share your side effects? The side effects of Everolimus sound terrible.

Has anyone had their Breast Cancer metastasized to the breast skin (aka Skin Mets)?
My medical team wants to treat me with systemic therapy only (
exemestane
/ibrance). Has anyone have a similar diagnosis to mine? Has anyone had a doctor that has treated skin metastasis? I need a second opinion to evaluate possible local treatments in addition to systemic therapy.

Have you experienced heartburn on Afinitor and exemestane?
I have been taking Afinitor and
exemestane
for a few days and last night started getting what seems like heartburn after I ate what was for me a normal meal. I dont think this is supposed to be a side effect. Has anyone experienced this?

What drug helped you get rid of liver mets?
I also have brain damage from the
exemestane
and wonder if they know the difference. I had a nurse visit and she told me immediately that
exemestane
is known for causing brain damage while all my doctors deny that.

PET/MRI scans show new activity
So she has dropped the Afinitor/
Exemestane
combo and is going to start a new combo of a different pill (can't remember which one she chose and I haven't started it yet) with Fulvestrant injections.

First CT scan tomorrow after starting new treatment
After ibrance and faslodex stopped working in the summer, and afinitor and
exemestane
didn't work for me, the oncologist thinks that the cancer is now hormone negative, though the bones remained stable. I was accepted on a trial for cabazitaxel in January.

Possible Side Effect of Post Cancer Med
Right side 2013 with only radiation followed up by 5 years of
Exemestane
(Aromasin). Both tumors were estrogen positive. Now they have put me on Tamoxifen for another 5 years. I'm just wondering if Tamoxifen can cause a bit of depression?

EVEROLIMUS & EXEMESTANE
The cancer spread so the next treatment plan is taking Everolimus &
Exemestane
. I haven't started it yet as I was admitted to ICU last Saturday with Malignant Pericardial Effusions (MPE). My breast cancer caused a lining of fluid around my heart and in my left lung.

Vision problems with Femara?
I already have brain damage from the
Exemestane
that has left me dizzy and off-balance. My cerebellum is miscommunicating with my eyes making them jump around causing the above problems. Also, can anyone verify how much of a kickback doctors get for prescribing our cancer drugs?

Has Anyone Else Suffered Brain Damage from Exemestane?
Have any of you suffered brain damage from
Exemestane
? Mine is extensive and seems to be getting worse. Make sure that your doctor is aware of any vision changes, dizziness or balance problems.

Bacterial pneumonia with mbc?
On Afinitor and
Exemestane
. No energy. Feeling so helpless and a bit scared. Didnt know cancer patients are at high risk for pnuemonia. Heading to doctor tomorrow to see what they suggest next.

10 day suspension of afinitor
I was just getting to grips with afinitor and
exemestane
then I caught a cold. The cold went pretty quickly but left me with sinus issues and a persistent cough. I also had cold sores on my lips and in my nose, the virus retreated but the sores just won't heal.

Could it be effects of Zometa after SRT?
I have had that difficulty with Ibrance/
Exemestane
in the past, but it passes in a few days. This has lingered. Last Monday the 23rd, I had my monthly Zometa and the Ibrance cycle ended on the 26th. Now I have a vague ache and tiredness in my lower back and hips along with the fatigue.

Afinator and Exemestane
Starting Afinator and
Exemestane
. Been reading about the side effects and they look horrible. Would like to hear others experience on these drugs. Oncologist said medium time is 5 months and then will have to go back on infusion chemo because there aren't any other options.

Afinitor 10mg and exemestane 25mg
I've just done my first 4 weeks on this drug combination after 18 cycles of ibrance 125mg and faslodex. Not to pull punches it's been quite an awful month. I've felt really ill, all the pain is back in my hips and back, mouth ulcers made worse by a dental infection, headaches, upset tummy, nausea and
