Rising Cancer markers
Was on
Ibrance
and Femara until about 2 months ago. I had a pet scan done and it showed some progression in the bones but nowhere else. My oncologist took me off Femara and put me on Faslodex.

Great scans
Ibrance
failed for me, so I was worried, but this new drug seems to be working. I'm on lynparza only. Twice a day, four pills a day.

possible treatment change/ markers increasing
I did 2 years of arimidex, and have been on faslodex since 2/2018 and
ibrance
since 4/2018. I had to stop xgeva after a year due to ONJ (last dose 12/2018). Onc had me hold my
ibrance
/faslodex to draw markers after my week off.

Diet
My nurse says a high carb diet, including simple sugars, is not good when on
Ibrance
. However I don't find solid research on this. Has anyone found that cutting carbs actually helps? Thanks for your input! Flatrock 17

Dr. Is Recommending Xeloda
My wife has been on
Ibrance
and Faslodex but it appears to not be as effective as it was. The doctor has recommended Xeloda. What has been your experience with Xeloda?

Positive immunotherapy trial results
Side effects are minimal and less than
ibrance
/faslodex that did not work for me. This is the first time any of my mets have shrunk, so needless to say, I am thrilled!

change in meds to afinitor & exemestance
Hi again, I was on
ibrance
& faslodex but the past 3 months my ca 27 29 markers have been climbing 71 to 97 to 109. My Onc is leaving my healthcare system and has set me up with a new Onc. They met before I was seen today, and decided to switch me to Afinitor 5mg and Exemestance 25 mg.

Post Hipec
I am taking letrozole at this point I haven’t been restarted on the
Ibrance
or any other Chemo. We will have to wait to see what my numbers say. They had dropped on just letrozole before my surgery. Sharing a photo of my dog - my only constant companion through all of this.

I Need To Vent. Sorry
I explained about my RA was flaring up worse with each Exemestane and how I tried to use it with my
Ibrance
& without my
Ibrance
(I'm 7 days on, 7 days off) and my body simply can't handle it. She put me on a new anti-inflammatory starting immediately and told me to get back on the Inhibitor.

PET Scan Results
He told me that we will continue with present meds which means that I will still be on
Ibrance
/Faslodex. What was new though but is not cancerous is that I have developed fibrosis in my left lung which may be due to inflammation or infection.

Nasal sores
Hi I've almost finished my first round of
Ibrance
- 21 days on/7 days off. I dont think I've done too bad so far but over the last few days I've developed sores inside my nose.

Good news!
Latest tumor markers down to 35 after 10 months on
Ibrance
and anastrozole!!! I know markers aren’t the be all and end all, but I like this trend from over 300 when I started! I even enjoyed 31 mile bike ride on Cape Cod this week.

Taxol?
So she’s had to stop taking
ibrance
and letrozole and is going to start paclitaxel once a week starting in the next couple of weeks I’m glad they are giving her a liver biopsy in case it has changed as when this journey started she was er+ her2- but with small expression to her2+.

Liver scan after finding new growths after cat scan?
Went on
Ibrance
, Xgeva, and faslodex. My cancer markers dropped dramatically. Then, at my June labs, it showed that my cancer markers had nearly doubled. My wbc and neuts were in the toilet. I was taken off all meds and got a cat scan.

How do you all feel on your 7 days off
Ibrance
? I’m on my 5 th round and each time when I’m off for the 7 days I still do not feel that great. I’m still tired and I don’t get a lot done. Also does anyone else’s scalp burn and head really sore? That also takes until the 4 th day off.

Ibrance side effects
Does anyone know if the side effects of
Ibrance
get better or worse the longer you take it? I’m only on 2nd cycle and feel so weak.

First scan results - mixed news
So having completed my first round of
Ibrance
, I've had my first scan and been back for results today (had quick scan because of breathing problems). There's good news and not so good news. I'll start with the not so good because I always like to finish on a high :).
