I want to drop Everolimus and be only on Fulvestrant/Faslodex + Xgeva
Meanwhile, I am on
Faslodex
since February and Xgeva since December 2019. I would like to ask my Onc if I can stop taking Everolimus and just stay on Faslo and Xgeva until my next scans in 4 months. My question: Is anyone just on
Faslodex
without another drug combo?

Tumour markers dropped
Hi Ladies Had bloods done yesterday and my CA153 marker has dropped from 783 to 472...this is now my third month of
faslodex
injections and I’m feeling a bit more optimistic ( but wary of doing so!)

Very low ER positive MBC
I have been put on ibrance and
faslodex
. I know this treatment is designed for ER positive tumors, and my oncologist said it is used no matter what the positivity rate. But my question is, is it likely to work? I have done one full month of ibrance.

Want to learn about lupron and casodex
I have been doing watchful waiting for 15 years. My Urologist did a TURP operation and the pathology said gleason 3/5. My Doc wants me to do Casodex to start. I have read that any kind of T deprivation can cause weight gain, man boobs, lethargy and heart problems. I have always been a skinny hyper active

Switching to verzenio - progression to liver
Now being switched to verzenio along with
faslodex
due to liver mets. Was just wondering how anyone handled this treatment and how long did it work. Very nervous over the side effects and just having liver mets. Any insight or tricks for the side effects is greatly appreciated.

Strange flares?
(I was on Ibrance (100 mg) and Letrozole, but my CA 27.29 markers started spiking, so I'm off that, taking Letrozole until I'm out, have had my two loading doses of
Faslodex
and am supposed to start Verzenio soon.) The situation started around the time we shut down for COVID-19.

Glad to be part of an understanding group
Faslodex
added to Arimidex and now Ibrance is replacing Arimidex. Sometimes I feel that instead of the side effects I'd rather live my life free of chemo. But pushing on. Thanks for your support

clinical trial UK
Husband diagnosed with APC in 2017 aged 49 yrs. Been through chemo, casodex, abiterone. PSA now rising after 10 months on Xtandi. Oncologist has suggested he is a good candidate for a clinical trial where his original samples are sent to USA for profiling. Unfortunately I was not able to be at this appointment

My husband's experience with Xtandi
I wanted to share my husband's recent experience with Xtandi (go to my profile and see my first post if you want the whole back story). At the first of this year his PSA started rising on Lupron + Casodex. In April he was put on Abiraterone + Prednisone, and after three months of continued rising PSA

How's your whiskers after ADT?
I've been on Casodex and Eligard for about 10 months now. My beard has virtually stopped growing and my skin is pushing out ingrown hairs. I was wondering how others on ADT are fairing with their whiskers, 🤔 DD.

Have Any of You Been Prescribed Casodex to Increase PSMA Expression Prior to LU-177.
Charlie is still hormone sensitive. I thought I had read that some clinics prescribe an ADT drug to cause PSMA expression to increase to enhance the treatment. My husband is getting his first treatment this Monday at Fortis Memorial Research Institute in Delhi, India. For those of you having a difficult

Swelling feet and ankles
Hi All, Just as a reminder, I am in treatment for MBC (Verzenia, Zometa,
Faslodex
) and have been on the same treatment for about a year. Suddenly, in the last couple of weeks, my feet and ankles have started to swell. It gets progressively worse throughout the day.
