Scans are Stable!
Am on Ibrance and
Faslodex
with quarterly Xgeva shots. Slight uptick in Cancer Antigen. Nothing dramatic but my oncologist wanted scans to confirm all was well. Had CT and Bone Scan. All stable with slight improvement overall.

Need Advice, numbness on right side of body...
I have been on 125 Ibrance,
Faslodex
injections monthly, and Zometa infusions monthly since October of last year. Scans have showed the meds are working and tumors in my spine have calcified over. However, I have developed numbness on the my right side (foot, hand, and now my face).

RISE IN TUMOR MARKERS
💗💗 I’ve recently had a treatment change to Xeloda (capecitabine) after mild progression on
Faslodex
. My blood work yesterday showed a slightly elevated number in both markers after two cycles on Xeloda. Has anyone else experienced anything similar?

Has anyone experienced severe stomach cramps while taking Faslodex injections?
I recently started
Faslodex
treatment, about 5 days later these horrible pains started in my upper abdomen. I just wondered if this is due to injections or my Y 90 radiation treatment I had on May 26. Has anyone had these treatments together ? I would love any suggestions.

Looking for suggestions
I had a RP in 1999 and PC under control for 20 years through Lupron, Casodex, Radiation, Chemo infusion and Trelstar. In 2020 PSA went up to 25 and started Zytiga and PSA went to 126 immediately which was when I started Chemo. Initially PSA went back down to 25 and after completing Chemo in April 2021

Experience with Lynparza?
Prescribed
Faslodex
and Ibrance. 3 months later scan much better, but ca27.29 continued to rise and Pleural Effusion did not improve. Waited 3 more months and just got PET scan results and confirmed treatment not working. Just started Lynparza and hopeful it will be effective.

Need wisdom ! iBrance / Faslodex now moving to Afinitor/Exemestane and Faslodex. Was doing so well on iBrance/Faslodex. Sigh.
Yesterday my onc called on a telehealth call and said "We're moving you from iBrance/
Faslodex
" to Afinitor/Exemestane and
Faslodex
. " Her response is that we are bringing in a battleship.

Casodex
Hi Folks, I am currently on Zoladex & have been for 3yrs I'm sure Xtandi will be next. My question is I was only on Casodex for approx 1 month just before early Chemo then moved to Zoladex, can I revisit Casodex later on or combine it with something else.? I noticed some people where on Casodex a lot

Looking for anyone else with the RAD51B mutation with mets to liver.
New here but not new to Prostate cancer. I'm writing for my dad that was first diagnosed with prostate cancer in October 2010 via digital exam when PSA was only 2.8. Had robotic surgery Feb. 2011 - post Gleason Score 7 (4+3) minor component pattern 5, margins clean and no Seminal Vesicle involvement

Praise be to GOD!
A little background....I was on Ibrance/
Faslodex
for a year, (ER+ HER2-, mets in some lymph nodes, sternum and liver), when they stopped working in the beginning of July 2021. I was off treatment for a month, (trying to get insurance approval for new treatment).

Does CBD oil interfere with iBrance and Faslodex like Grapefruit?
I was reading an interesting article attached here https://www.healthline.com/health/cancer/cbd-for-cancer It mentioned that taking CBD may interfere with medications especially those that have a "Grapefruit" warning such as the case with iBrance and
Faslodex
.

Metastatic Breast Cancer to the bone
Along with MANY other situations, my
Faslodex
injections are giving me these huge, painful lumps on my buttocks that I'm sick of dealing with! (See how angry I am right now??) Any medical suggestion on how to make this situation stop happening?
