MBC cancer diagnosis
When I was diagnosed with breast cancer nine months ago, it had already spread to numerous lymph nodes, several ribs and a pelvic bone. My oncologist recommended letrozole, Ibrance and Xgeva. Two PET scans and six months later the breast tumors had shrunk and other areas of concern had either shrunk

Under active thyroid and tamoxifen for breast cancer
Hi Has anyone else had problems with their thyroid whilst taking tamoxifen or Letrozole? I've been fine on levothyroxine for years but since I started taking oestrogen removers as part of my cancer treatment I'm suffering with symptoms of my thyroid playing up.

Gabapentin for pain
After 4 weeks of terrible hip and back pain, newest mri shows labral tears in both hips. Gabapentin has been ordered, currently taking Ibrance, letrozole and xgeva. Has anybody tried this for pain management? I don’t like the looks of the side effects.

Exemastane and Afinitor
Hi, it will be 5 years ago in July I received my diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer. I started out on exemastane and zometa infusions worked great for 4 years then I was put on letrozole when it stopped working. Letrozole only worked short time anyway Cancer has spread to a few spots in my spine.

Anyone taking Letrozole after being treated for breast cancer ?
I would be interested to know how other people are coping, and what side effects you have. I have peripheral neuropathy, and I have to be very careul about bumping into things as I get bruises.

Anyone taking Aromasin/Exemestane with Inrance
Hi there, It’s been a while since I have posted anything. Back in November I had to stop taking the Letrozole due to the neuropathy and myalgia issues that were more than I could handle day to day 😢. My Oncologist replaces that drug with Aromasin aka Exemestane as the hormone blocker. I am terrified
