Is anyone having side effects of the Ibrance, Faslodex and Xgeva?
I'm starting my 5 month of IBRANCE,
Xgeva
and Faslodex for Mets in my lumbar, sternum and pelvis. I Had 15 radiation treatments to the lumbar prior to starting the treatment.

Travels with PSA
Upon return, he has new onset of pain, (boney mets stage 4) and alkaline phosphate levels are high, ( on Xfogia dose # 3,
Xgeva
and Trelstar) he has been fatigued and somewhat depressed. Take time to enjoy life! Time slips away so quickly,

Calcium intake
Started
Xgeva
and Xtandi 6 months ago. I have taken extra calcium the entire time with fortified antacids but never knew how to take until 6 months ago my onco suggested I take 1,500 mg of calcium a day which I do with fortified antacids, OJ and almond milk.

Treatment update
Treated with Firmagon,
Xgeva
, Casodex, Prednisone and Docetaxel. Fingers still numb and fingernails a mess from the Chemo. When Chemo ended, switched to Lupron and Zytiga. PSA went untetectable before the end of Chemo and has remained that way. Scans look as clean as they can.

To all those who received XOFIGO treatment :
Currently still on ZYTIGA Along with Lupron and
Xgeva
. PSA declines but Mets increased. Pain is not too bad. Oncologist wants to add XOFIGO starting in July with 4 treatments one a month for 4 months.

Up's & Down's
Moving forward, I have been on Ibrance, Faslodex &
Xgeva
since Sept. My family is very supportive, my daughter is a nurse in the oncology / telemetry unit & my husband has never missed an appointment with me. He wants to believe all is good & really wants me to stop dwelling on the "cancer"!

Increase in bone Mets?
He has done Taxotere , Lupron,
Xgeva
and was entered into a clinical trial but got out of trial because he was so very sick. Now Zytiga and PSA is down but increase in bone Mets is huge. New lesions in ribs spine femur arms Pelvis sacrum. Anyone have this experience?

Husband Just Diagnosed
He is receiving firmagon,
xgeva
and has finished his 2nd round of docetaxal and neulasta one day after chemo. Chemo is giving him joint pains, tired and feeling of being unwell. He's still working and doing things around the house and yard work.

Guardant360 DNA report shows mutant cancer ARAF P2116L & NF1 T2722T
Going off Lupron and am now being treated with loe dose ammune agents along with
Xgeva
. Just got results from a new Guardant Liquid Biopsy DNA test. MO says there are no relevant therapies currently available to kill these types of cancer cell alterations. Life is good, and goes on....Dave

"OLD" DRUG WORKS PRETTY GOOD
At the time I was on Firmagon,
Xgeva
, Zytiga and Olaparib simultaneously. Unfortunately, the main side effect for me was severe fatigue and I found myself taking longer and longer mid-day naps. I concluded that the way things were going I'd be gone by Christmas. So what to do?

Keeping Bones Strong
Xgeva
, calcium supplements and weight lifting help to keep bones strong. Milk, yogurt and other dairy products can help bone strength too but I have read that dairy is an accelerator for advanced prostate cancer so we should steer clear of it. Have you folks heard the same?

Labs 5/22
So, the comprehensive said I was good to take my
xgeva
. But, of course I needed the status of WBC and neutrophils. One nurse said “you can use the 4/24 numbers”. I said “I don’t think so. They need to monitor my response to Ibrance”. She paged dr and sure enough, someone forgot to order.
