Experiences with

Ibrance

Has anyone had dry peeling facial skin from Ibrance & Letrozle? If you have how did you treat it? I noticed my face is peeling the last several days for no reason.

Is anyone being treated with Ibrance and Faslodex despite having a low level of estrogen? The alternative is to assume the cancer is triple negative and treat with capecitabene.

Do they get better next week while I’m off ibrance a week? Thanks!

Has anyone had injections like juvederm a face filler for wrinkles while taking Ibrance & Letrozole? I am wondering if it would be ok.

I have been on faslodex and ibrance for two and a half years for bone Mets, doing well. My recent scan however had a new update in the chest wall, posterior right rib and several areas in the left rib. Then the report goes on yo state probable muscle spasm.

Diagnosed in May 2018 and been on letrozole and 125mg of Ibrance. My neutrophil is consistently low (between .3 - .6) but today it hit a really low level at .2.

Hi there! Anyone getting hyper sensitive on these drugs. Lately it has been the slightest thing make me burst out in tears. It could be stress or lack of sleep but I’m trying to narrow it down. Pretty embarrassing because it’s happened 2x at work 😕 Lynn

Tonight I can not sleep my pain on my lower back and pelvis is worse I am on Ibrance and Faslodex for thre months with this combination and one year with Ibrance and Letrozole, my last bone scan on last October and act scans were ok, my oncologist told me that maybe is arthritis what are your recommendations

after only 2 weeks on Ibrance my platelets have dropped from 200,000 to 117,000 and my neutrophils are 1.1 with wbc 2.2. - to me this is quite a drop but oncologist said that is why they take you off 1 week per month to try to recoup. anyone else have this much of a drop without problems?

Myself and my son have been diagnosed with viral infection on chest my mum takes ibrance and letrazol we are concerned as always but somebody said to me today that she doesn’t need to worry about viral infections.

I finished my third week on ibrance on Sunday , so this was done on my week off ibrance ( but continuing on Letrozole.) The op / general anaesthetic went well and I was allowed home a few hours later.

I’m having a lot of side effects with Ibrance. My onc says if I voluntarily stop the drug, and the cancer progresses, I cannot go back to the Ibrance. Is this true?

I am on Ibrance and letrooizle and zometa.since Sept 2018..kind new ..hadctscan today ..hope i get good results. Had low blood counts 2 times already. Was having a lot off pain in my right lung and stomach.

I currently take IBrance and Letrazole for my cancer. Besides the thinking of the hair which is not that noticable I have extreme fatigue. Does anyone take IBrance and struggle with fatigue? Have you found anything that helps the fatigue? I sleep alot and don't like it.

Had good results on CT scan after starting Ibrance and Letrozole in May. I was diagnosed in January left breast ducal carcinoma with spread to left armpit lymph node, lung and hilar lymph node. All areas of spread are reduced in size by half or more - some gone completely in right lung.

It showed that 2 drugs worked on the receptor of my tumor cells, Ibrance, which my blood count just wouldn't take and my mets spread and grew on the Verzenio. The second drug is Affinitor and my tumor was strong in this receptor. I am going to start this week.

I started taking Ibrance and Letrozole (+ Zoladex and Zometa) in June. I also drastically changed my diet (NO SUGAR, no dairy and no glutten). My CA 153 went down to normal levels within the first 3 months. I had my scan in October and all cancer has gone from my bones, liver and lymph node!!

Getting my monthly injection today and starting next cycle of Ibrance (#18). Now it’s time to start planning my next adventure! I will continue to fight this disease and live life to the fullest as long as I’m able. Stay strong and fight fight fight everyone!

I was taking Letrizole and Ibrance when I first got up in the morning. Someone on this forum mentioned taking the meds at night instead. Well the past two days I switched to taking them before bed. The results are amazing.

Then, in 2016, I was on Ibrance for almost ten cycles and developed breathing problems that were diagnosed as Interstitial Lung Disease, which has not lessened in the two years I've been off Ibrance, and which makes me get out of breath easily and especially in the kind of humid weather we had this summer
