Doctor said “unheard of”!
I have been taking
Ibrance
and letrozole for 28 months now for metastatic breast cancer. When diagnosed, it was already in breast, lymph nodes, liver, lung, and vertebrae. A few weeks ago, I had a CT Scan.

Call from OncologistI
She has decided to leave me on the same program of 2 wks. on/ one wk. off
Ibrance
. and repeat scans mid September. I think that is a bit early, since I just had them a week ago on Aug. 18th with good reports. Any thoughts? Cheers, June S.

Brighten the day
I’m off my
Ibrance
for a week and I feel like this for a day or so. Maybe it’s a kind of come down. I had a waste of time phone call from my Oncologist yesterday. I could hardly understand him and it’s the first time I have spoken to him. I wish I could have my face to face consultations back.

Good Scan Reports.
I have been lowered to two weeks on and one week off
Ibrance
dosage. That is still to hard on my WBC and neutrophils. Doctor will phone today to discuss next step. Cheers, June S.

Right knee pain
Hello all MBC, my treatment is
Ibrance
and Letrozole going on 9 months. About a month ago my right knee started giving me excruciating pain at times. Got a knee brace, stops my circulation a bit, got creams and over the counter pain killers.

Liver tumors progressed
In the meantime I am still on the
Ibrance
and Letrozole. Has anyone been in this situation? Other than fatigue, I’ve felt pretty good with
Ibrance
and Letrozole. I’m nervous about going on Xeloda. Thanks for your input.

New
I am doing very well at the moment on
Ibrance
and Anastrozole ( for 21 months) and just try to get on with life as much as I can. I can potter around my house and garden, playing with my dogs, baking bread (a new COVID skill) walking for miles in the sun and enjoying life.

Next....!!!
Well, my PET scan last week showed my tumours in my liver grew and so after only 8 months,
Ibrance
and Letrozole is no longer an option. Next step is Faslodex. Anything I should know on what to expect?

Help! Elevated liver enzymes!
The only thing different is the
ibrance
was switched from the capsule to the tablet-but that was a manufacturing thing. Anyone else had this happen? I need your thoughts and your experience!

To be on Ibrance or not?
My oncologist back in CA put me on
Ibrance
after surgery and radiation -
Ibrance
2018 started it. My pet scans are cancer free and my oncologist told me to stay on
Ibrance
as it is working. My new oncologist told me that I should just stay on letrozole and go off
Ibrance
as I’m healthy.

Update Bone Scan
I continue with
Ibrance
- Letrozole- Zoladex-xgeva. The doctor told me that the knee is not clear because "the pet scan looks from the head as well as above the knee we do not know if the injury was there", She does not see anything that may seem new, we continue on.

Ibrance and Letrozole.
Today I’m shutting out the aches and pains from my Mets and have the scent of my lovely sweetpeas and a little Cosmos around me.

Starting Ibrance
Is anyone else afraid of starting on
Ibrance
because of the side effect on your immune system? Has anyone tried it and gone off it and the cancer did not get worse?

Ibrance stopped working!
I have been on
Ibrance
/Letrozole for 18 months with little side effects and I dread having to change therapies. I will not do intravenous chemo as that almost killed me the first time around. Is there anyone that had to change therapies after
Ibrance
stopped working?

PAIN IN THE ARM (NOT IN THE KNEE)
PET shows no cancer (13 tumors gone thanks to
Ibrance
and Letrozole). Now to another problem. Around 2 months ago I had a knot on my back, right side. It affects my nerve and is incredibly painful, runs over to my shoulder, down my arm, through my elbow and into my little finger.

Update on failing Ibrance!
She had not heard about
Ibrance
being successful again after a 6 week break. She asked if I had read a study, which I hadn't, but will search for it. If you have read one, please let me know.

Sick and tired of being sick and tired!
I’m on
Ibrance
and Letrozole for 7 months now. My dear boyfriend of 5 years decided to leave me 3 months ago because “ HE couldn’t handle it”. I stopped all the crying and stuff. But I’d say, the last 2 months or so I am soooooo tired. Even the stairs feels like I’m climbing Mount Everest.
