Mum with low grade ovarian and limited treatment options
Ladies, My Mum was diagnosed nearly seven years ago now with low grade ovarian cancer. Following 9 rounds of chemo (which never worked), she was prescribed Letrozole in 2011. This stopped working late last year and Mum was prescribed Tamoxifen which initially showed positive signs of keeping the cancer

New to Ibrance and Fulvestrant
Hi all! I am new here to the site. I was diagnosed Aug. 31 with Stage 4 MBC. I had Stage 1 Breast Cancer 3 years ago which was treated as a lumpectomy and radiation, no chemo. I am still in shock how this could happen, but I am trying my hardest to research and stay positive. I was on Letrozole

NED after 5 months on Ibrance and Letrozole
I had my first PET scan last week since starting Ibrance and Letrozole in April 2017. There is no evidence of cancer in my body! I was diagnosed in April with breast cancer and bone mets. I think I am still in shock! The meds are working for now, go back in 4 months for another PET scan. I don't

Scared and not sure what to do
Hi all- after a hellish 2 and a half month wait since my first visit to the GP I have now been diagnosed with low grade 1A ovarian cancer. I'm really confused though. My surgery removed the cyst, right ovary, right tube, omentum and took a biopsy of the left ovary and the peritoneum. My consultant has

MBC and ibrance
Hi all, I am from Hong Kong. First diagnosis was in 2015 stage3. 10 days ago I was diagnosed with stage IV breast cancer, liver and spine. Sizes were not major. My oncologist suggested either Chemo or ibrance plus Letrozole. I personally prefer ibrance+L but worry if this is as strong as chemo injection

Hair thinning? Anyone else noticed this? Any tips?
I had breast cancer 2 years ago, estrogen + had mastectomy now on letrozole, I tolerate the tablet well. I didn't have chemo or radiotherapy. But I have noticed my hair has got thinner, I assume this is because the letrozole has reduced my estrogen level, was wondering if anyone else had experienced

Countdown to the Next Round of Chemo - Half Full or Half Empty?
Hi Everybody, We have been told that my wife will need to start another course of Chemo in about 8 weeks time. We had this news a couple of weeks ago, and the notion of hopping back onto the merry-go-round has been permeating through me, simmering and stewing. We have had a fairly stable 18 months -

I'm new. Has anyone been diagnosed with endometrial cancer in peritoneal cavity?
In October 2016 I had a complete hysterectomy and the pathology revealed that I had stage 1, grade 1 endometrial cancer. A month later I had a CT scan and PET scan that revealed that I had seeding in my peritoneal cavity and a tumour on my vaginal vault. I just received my 6th IV chemotherapy treatment
