Faslodex discomfort
Can anyone currently on
faslodex
tell me how you get through the discomfort of the injections? My last injections were so painful they brought tears to my eyes. I ended up with two welts one on each side.

New here so hi everyone 💜
I just started Ibrance and Aromasin after we learned the Letrazole/
Faslodex
combo stopped working and I now have liver mets plus more bone involvement. Starting my second cycle next week if I can get insurance crap figured out. If this doesn’t work it’ll be chemo for me.

Try
faslodex
. Although he didn’t indicate what else would go with
faslodex
. He said the other option would be xeloda which is a chemotherapy pill. (All my meds come in a bag that says chemo but they’ve been hormone treatments). Xeloda is a true chemo I guess. I’m open.

disappointed
The next step for me is
Faslodex
and a pill I can't remember the name. (just saw doctor yesterday). What side effects should I expect from the
faslodex
as I'm an academic coach (teacher) and still working. Also, is anyone in a study at John Hopkins?
