Chemo delayed due to low Neutrophils
I was hoping it was just the
Ibrance
that was causing the issues but I guess my bone marrow doesn’t work very fast. I did feel like a had a virus half way through so I guess that caused the problem.

Mets to liver
I’m on
Ibrance
/ Letrozole combo but it seems to have stopped working. Last CT scan showed 2 tumours grew 30%. I have a PET scan coming up on the 21st. I think my treatment will be changed. To what, I have no idea. I’m petrified. I feel I was handed a death sentence at 51 years old.

Scan Results
So relieved as I have been on
Ibrance
/letrozol since May of 2018 ...hoping it was still working. Is anyone familiar with “Toxic Granulation Present”, Elliptocytes, and Tear Drop Value 1+. in bloodwork results. Is this anemia? Onc didn’t seem concerned...caused by meds.

New to group
Currently in the
IBrance
/letrozole duo ( but have recently changed off letrozole to anastrozole with massive improvements for pain in my hands and forearms. Was wanting to hear from anyone with bone and liver Mets to hear how they are travelling. It is great to be part of such a supportive group.

Ibrance questions
Is there an alternative to
ibrance
? What is the longest amount of time someone's been on
ibrance
? Does it compromise quality of life? Does anyone know of any clinical trials for stage IV metastatic breast cancer, with estrogen positive bone only mets?

Government advice about sheilding
Given I was told to be very careful whilst on
Ibrance
and letrozole and have an emergency card with a list of symptoms for which I have to go straight to A&E, I'm slightly puzzled . Am not going to change anything yet. Had anyone else had a letter yet?

On Xeloda- shortness of breath?
Just finishing the first cycle on Xeloda after “graduating” from years on Faslodex and
Ibrance
for mets to bone, now extending to liver. Have experienced a considerable uptick in shortness of breath starting on day 11 of 14 day dosage.

Newly Diagnosed
June 2020 started
Ibrance
and fulvestrant. No new scans yet as too soon. I hve never had any tumour markers elevated so monitoring is done via chest X-ray and Ct scan. My Lymph node Mets have caused pressure on my vocal cord nerve paralysing it and making my voice hoarse.

Awful, awful, awful taste with Ibrance
Can anyone explain why everything (except chocolate ice cream and hard mint candy, plus about 5 other things) tastes horrible when I take
Ibrance
, all 7+21 days, and leaves an equally bad aftertaste? Solution?

Endoscopy results
I’ve been on
Ibrance
and Letrozole for a year, but after my CT scan tomorrow, I may have to switch. Last year when I was diagnosed, the cancer was in my gastric body and angularis. Now it’s also in the antrum. That sounds like it’s spreading.

Decreased dosage of ibrance
What factors / side effects determined a lowering of your
ibrance
dosage . I started at 125 mg for 1 year ,lowered to 100 mg for 9 months . I am curious about dropping to 75mg and hoping to elevate some fatigue.

Just starting ibrance
Yesterday I had my first faslodex injection, and today I take my first
ibrance
. I’m one of those who reads all prescribing info, and it sounds identical to the warnings about the IV chemo I had before.

Looking for some perspective
My only line of treatment has been
Ibrance
100mg and Faslodex injections 1x a month. My last PET scan in May showed no evidence of disease. It was certainly something to celebrate, but as we all know our diagnosis is one that never actually goes away. I have 2 questions today.
