Letrozole
I have been on Letrozole and Ibrance since May of last year and doing well. The newly refilled Letrozole prescription is a different tablet and when I inquired with the BriovaRX pharmacy they said they switched from Canadian mfg to one in India. Has anyone else experienced this change with Letrozole

MBC acquired during pregnancy
MBC patient under Ibrance and Letrozole. Is it possible to take a break from both Ibrance and letrozole for 2wks? I feel joint pains and tiredness all the time so I am wondering if taking a longer break would help. Please comment your experiences and your suggestions are highly appreciated.

verzenio or aromatase inhibitors
I was diagnosed in April 2017 at stage 4 breast cancer. Started on tamoxifen and then switched to anastrozole in March 2018. Cancer is now progressing so doctor wants me to switch to verzenio with faslodex depending on whether I get the financing for the new drug verzenio. I thought I would be going

Staying alive
Hello, I am new here. I found this forum when I started Ibrance. I have been on it almost 3 weeks in addition to faslodex. Before this, my cancer had stayed back with letrozole since 2014. I originally had BC in 2001 and it came back in the other boob in 2013. I started Mets last year. I have it

Anywhere to get discount for Ibrance?
I am just diagnosed of MBC to lymph node and starting on letrozole and Ibrance. My problem is the pharmacy who is responsible in shipping my Ibrance was trying to delay the ibrance for many days. I have a good health insurance BCBS. Anybody with Bluecross blue shield ppo? How about a co-pay discount

Verzenio vs Ibrance?
First time posting, glad to find you! Does anyone have experience with the CDK 4/6 inhibitor abemiciclib (Verzenio)? I just started Faslodex for recurring liver mets after 14 months on Letrozole. May start Verzenio or Ibrance next month. Thanks!

4th month on Ibrance 125
Hello everyone, I rarely post but this 4th month of ibrance 125 and letrozole is really tough. I made it about halfway through it and quit. The side effects are bad and I'm always in a fog of tiredness. I also had gotten stomach flu this week. I go back to Dr on Feb 6. I was staying positive four months
