Side effects of Faslodex?
Just got word from onc yesterday that more new small nodules in lungs are cancer so he is recommending change of hormone blocker to Faslodex (stay on Ibrance) How have others tolerated Faslodex?

Second Guessing Surgery Decision
If my goal is, in the event the primary treatment isn't curative, to delay aggressive treatments for distant
metastasis
as long as possible, shouldn't I just go with MRI Guided SBRT + ADT as my primary treatment instead of RP?

Reply to jersey-jazz. I thought you might also be interested in my medical history.
If you don’t mind to read a long story, I would love to provide more details. I moved to US since 2000. I worked here and had insurance all the time but never think about to use it since I always think myself as a healthy person. My first diagnosed DCIS on 2012 was in Taiwan when I went back to visit

Same as Carole, “new....well sort of ; )”
Please forgive me for my poor English and have to quote some of Carole’s words to express my thoughts. I also having been a member since 2018 and have read your collective posts daily for over 3 years. I was always hesitant to write a post because of my poor English and always didn’t have good news.

Disappointing CT Scan Results
Hi Ladies After 10 days of anxiously waiting, I got my scan results yesterday. On a positive note, my bones are still stable & my lymph node under my arm has shrunk slightly. Unfortunately, my lungs & liver are showing significant progression. It’s so disappointing after going through so much chemo,

Confused about which scan is more suitable
So how do we know which scan is more suitable to detect
metastasis
; Ga68 PSMA or FDG PET? Could it be that nothing shows up on a PSMA PET but cancer is detected on FDG PET or vice versa? If this is true, then how do we know which scan is more suitable?

Pamidronate
Has anyone else been receiving pamidronate instead of Zometa? Shortly after receiving my first treatments my bones just ache. Then it seemed to subside. I had to miss a couple of treatments due to covid, after my first treatment I was sore again. I have numerous bone Mets from the top of my head down

PET/PSMA scan results after 3rd LU-177. Should I go ahead with SBRT or complete 4th LU-177?
There is interval detection of mildly PSMA avid right sacral sclerotic bone
metastasis
. The oncologist and radiologist are happy with the effectiveness of the LU-177.

Question regarding CBD+ being used with faslodex to fight breast cancer.
Hi my Mom was diagnosed in 2019 with breast cancer and also found out that it spread to the bone. My Mom was put on Faslodex and was doing really well, then her oncologist said He wanted to introduce another pill that would help the first one. Long story short it is now 2022 and the medicine has started

Aspirin & Anoikis Resistance
In the current study, which looked at breast cancer
metastasis
to lungs, aspirin restored anoikis sensitivity by targeting thromboxane A2. Thromboxane A2 is produced by activated platelets - aspirin inhibits platelet activation.

To long term survivors
Long term survivors, Please post your stories, suggestions and share treatments you have been on. I am having a huge anxiety after Bayer dismissed ErSO compound. I hoped that it would be a cure for all of us. I am so discouraged and need strength. I have been diagnosed in 2019 after 9 years of my initial

I need to make the decision to pick a Medicare Supplement Plan & Rx Plan (Plan D) as I lose my private health coverage by May 1st. I’m on IBrance , Faslodex & Xgeva. Based in Florida. I have contacted all the cancer centers to find out which insurance plans covers the high costs for MBC patients.
