How Long Does it Take a Bone Mets Fracture to Heal?
I really want to know how long a fractured bone takes to heal while on IBrance, Faslodex &
Xgeva
(every 3mos)? In April 2019, after thinking I had a pulled quad muscle for 8 mos, learned I had stage 4 Bone Mets in my left pelvis bone at the mid-point of the hip socket.

Cabazitaxel,Cytoxan or Comfort Care after dismissal from Lu PSMA Vision Trial
Since then, we have been through Provenge, Zytiga, Xstandi, Docetaxel (5 sessions), and he still is receiving Lupron and
Xgeva
. Out of all the treatments, only the Docetaxel's side effects became unbearable and I am quite certain he would have died if he stayed on it.

Afinitor and diabetes and other questions.
My metastatic breast cancer has not responded well to Ibrance, Faslodex, and
Xgeva
. My wbc count tanked/cancer markers soared. She wants to move me to afinitor and aromasin. I am diabetic and worry that the afinitor will mess with my blood sugar. Anyone have any experience with this?

Is this normal?
He also received an
Xgeva
infusion. He now has low calcium but I guess that's a common side effect? Also a routine blood test on june 14 showed his psa is 59. Is he castrated resistant already?

Early progress - Good news
T score of 1 and Z score of 0.3. the MO has suggested starting
Xgeva
but only at 60mg dose every 6 months. Unsure why this dose vs. the normal monthly dosing regimen, other than he knows my reluctance to add high risk medications to the treatment regimen.

Liver scan after finding new growths after cat scan?
Went on Ibrance,
Xgeva
, and faslodex. My cancer markers dropped dramatically. Then, at my June labs, it showed that my cancer markers had nearly doubled. My wbc and neuts were in the toilet. I was taken off all meds and got a cat scan.

Double whammy chemo
Was on firmagon/
Xgeva
, now back to Lupron just to keep the testosterone low - his is under 7. Zytiga did nothing He had 9 sessions of Docetaxel with Dr Tagawa -Weill Cornell- and it was a walk in the park. Only felt good.

Long Overdue Update
He has now had two docetaxel infusions, is still on
Xgeva
, Lupron, Morphine, Norfo. Missed last infusion bc he was in ICU with an intestinal infection- that’s us there in the pic! He is having one more infusion next week, though I wish he wouldn’t. I feel like this last one almost killed him.

ONJ, zometa, xgeva
Hi, I did 2 months of zometa then switched to
xgeva
due to side effects of the zometa. I took
xgeva
for about a year and a half then had a small piece of exposed jaw bone. Oral surgeon said ONJ, onc said no more
xgeva
or any drug in it's class.

My cancer markers have been slowly rising for the last 3 months, but this lab showed they've doubled. My wbc counts and neuts are 2 and.8
I've been on faslodex,
xgeva
, and ibrance since November of 2019. Counts were ok until April when my cancer markers started slowly rising. I had a UTI, so oncologist was not too worried. This lab showed that my cancer markers are at 134, nearly doubled. And my WBC count is at 2. Neuts at .8.

Anti-Depressants and Cancer Survival
Hmm, that sounds vaguely like the mechanisms behind Zometa/
Xgeva
+ Celebrex. My takeaway is that if you have cancer and are suffering any level of fatigue and/or depression, seek help!

Mountains out of molehills?
On Lupron/Zytiga/Prednisone/
Xgeva
since December. PSA dropped from 7.57 in December, and kept dropping to 0.69 in May. Latest reading on June 26 showed slight increase to 0.73. Being a natural borne worrywort, should I be concerned about this rise or am I making mountains out of molehills?
