Liver MRI Scan results
Hi ladies I’ve just had a call from the Oncologist and unfortunately he has confirmed that my liver MRI scan has shown a new growth in the liver measuring 2.5cm. He has advised that he will no longer prescribe me palbociclib as he has proven that it is no longer effective. He wants me to continue on

Follow up about tumor markers
Hello friends. I along with some others on this board have wondered about upward movement in our CA15 tumor markers during our monthly blood labs. Today I met with my oncologist following my semi annual CT and blood scans. I am 2 years into MBC. I was apprehensive because the last 3 month blood labs

Are Frequent Scans Safe.
I have stage four metastatic breast cancer. My Oncologist has me going for a CAT scan and a full body bone scan every three months. Aren't those scans loaded with radiation? If they are damaging is it a good idea to have so many scans. I am quite worried about this. I am on Ibrance and Letrozole

Burning numb hands
Hi. Been on letrozole for 6 months and have started to have my hands and fingertips go numb. But now the hand and arm up to my elbow feels like it’s burning. I even have to touch my hand to make sure it’s not hot. Anyone else had this? What did you do? Waking me up out of a sound sleep and I can’t

Ibrance - to start or not?
Hi everyone - I'm posting on behalf of my mom, Maria. She was diagnosed with Stage II breast cancer in 2012, had a mastectomy and was put on tamoxifen (no chemo). We found out it came back in September of 2018. She currently has 2 tumors in her bone - t2 and l4 regions (only bone, no organs). She has

Dry Eyes?
Hi Ladies, I'm just posting this in case it helps anyone else anyone else as much as it has helped me. Since I started taking Letrozole my eyes have become very dry - itchy, burny, watery etc. I use eye drops and take sea buckthorn, both of which help but the problem remained. I read somewhere that

Zometa vs Xgeva
Hello everyone! I have not posted in a very long time. I had bone density test and the Letrozole has wreaked havoc on my bones. So I'm going to start bone strengthening injections-it will either be Zometa or Xgeva. I'm just wondering what anyone's experiences been with either of these drugs. As always

Tamoxifen
Hi Ladies my pharmacy informed me today they are out of stock of all brands of Tamoxifen apart from one brand which I can not tolerate. Apparently Uk wholesalers out of stock due to Covid 19 . which is a little worrying for everyone. I have my 4 monthly check up end of June (although haven't heard about

Knowledge about the condition
Well, you all seem to know much more than I do. Ive been diagnosed during lockdown, and have had a few trips for scans and blood tests, but all my diagnosises have been by telephone. Then followed by the stark reality in a copy of the letter sent to my doctor. I've just completed one month of letrozole

Migraine headache
I just finished my sixth cycle of Ibrance and letrozole. The last two months I’ve been having headaches nearly every day and most recently they’ve become migraine headaches. Today I actually experienced 5 minutes of speaking difficulties with the headache. Does anyone else seem to have headaches like

Slight increase in tumor marker
I started Ibrance and Letrozole last month and did great. Tumor marker seemed to come down from 70 to 58, but I had always taken my multivitamin and double dose of B complex which I learned you shouldn’t take before tumor marker bloodwork because it can show the marker to be lower than it actually is

MRI Scan
Hi I had my liver MRI yesterday with gadolinium. I dread MRIs but it was actually not too bad and I kept my eyes closed throughout the 45 minute procedure. I’m having my underarm ultrasound and biopsy next Weds. I guess I will get my results at my next appointment with the Oncologist. In the meantime
