The tamoxifen and afinitor I was on for two months has done nothing. I had my CT scan six weeks early on Tuesday, read it on my portal on Wednesday and today met with my onco. She said the last option is Xeloda (capche.....(generic name). I told 8 pills, 4 twice a day for one week and then one week

starting Xeloda (capecitabine)
I’m looking for some “positive “ input from anyone who has been on Xeloda. Hopefully there is someone who can give me some insight in to what to expect. And how long you were on it. I have been on Ibrance (4 years) and Hormonal treatment for a total of 5 years. My last treatment was Tamoxifen. After

Death (Pls just scroll by and do not read if topic will upset you)
Because of new updates and not good ones, I have a very basic question. Unlike many, I have no family, no siblings, no husband, no children, etc. I have been on my own for many years. Since day one when diagnosed, nobody ever came with me and I have been to every cancer center always by myself. Friends

Still waiting to see a consultant
Hi all, I am new here so please bear with me. I've been a heavy drinker for 25 years, now that I've stopped I don't know why I bothered as I feel so much more alert and with it but (and I'm not blaming anyone else but myself) as I was known as liking a good time and the majority of my friends are drinkers

A very cool link for all inhibitors that you can download
Here is a very cool link on all the inhibitors. This link is awesome and it covers all inhibitors for all of the cancer pathways. Half way down under "Other Androgen Receptor Products" you will see two graphics; one is "Download Inhibitor Catalog", the other is download the "Androgen Receptor Signaling

How often should I do PET scan?
Hello everyone, I have stage 4 metastatic breast cancer (ER,PR+, HER2-). I have been taking tamoxifen and kisqali since 02/2022. I did a baseline PET scan in March this year. My oncologist wants me to do a PET scan every 3 months. Is that really necessary? Do you have any insights as to how often

Mixed response to treatment , not the results I was expecting from Paclitaxel,perjeta & herceptin.
Hi ladies I hope everyone is enjoying a pleasant weekend . I talked with my oncologist yesterday afternoon about my recent Ct & bone scans , these were the 1 year scans since my last Paclitaxel treatment . It appears that the treatment stabilized the lung nodules and the liver Mets But my bone Mets are

Has anyone tried using Herb Pharm, Thyroid Calming?
I have Graves' disease, diagnosed last year. I'm currently taking 10mg of carbimazole per day. I had bloods taken on Thursday but don't have the results back yet. I suspect I need to reduce my meds further. For the last couple of weeks I've been feeling quite light headed, my limbs feel heavy, and I'm

So glad I found this site
Diagnosed with BC when I was 46, bi lat mastectomy, chemo and tamoxifen. Mets to spine this year after 25 years cancer free. On letrozole and finished radiation. Trying to decide if I really want to take verzenio now or wait a while. The side effects look awful.. I suppose we all debate quality of life
