Dry frizzy hair due to MBC medication,
I’ve been on Ibrance and Faslodex for 4-1/2 years. Although I’m thankful that the meds have helped me so far, I would like to know if anyone has found a good shampoo and conditioner to help with dry, straight and frizzy hair, My old shiny and wavy hair changed significantly since start of MBC drugs

Dustasteride (avodart)
My doc has prescribed this drug for benign prostatic hyperplasia. I need help with urinary frequency, urgency, and frequent night time urination. It is too early to tell if the drug is helping. It can three to six months to have the desired effect of reducing prostate swelling. I am posting because

I took the morning one at 6am, as I wake up stupid early all the time, and im wondering if it was too early. I have hashimotos, and take 150 levo per day

Allergic reaction to Doxil, my first ever chemo infusion
Hi everyone, Has anyone experienced an allergic reaction to Doxil? Almost three years ago, I was diagnosed with stage 4 MBC. After being on hormone therapy for over two years, mostly IBrance and Letrozole, and then oral chemo for six months, my most recent petscan showed the cancer is still spreading

biopsy report, still waiting to see consultant.
hi all, had an email with the below conclusion of my biopsy, I have a very minuscule left lobe which they want to biopsy but were unable to due to the size. So the right lobe was biopsied. Until I see the consultant I don’t really understand the results, I know none of you are specialist or doctors

infusion Side Effects
good morning fellow warriors. My PSA continues to move up so my oncologist ordered 20 sessions of radiation. The radiation was a walk in the park compared to the 1030-1048 Zometa infused Wednesday morning. Holy cow ! Peed (a few dribbles) every half hour. Chills then sweats. Bone ache throughout and

Help and advice for mum
Hey All, My mum has hidden her drinking, liver issues and cirrorsis for 15 years as I’ve been living in a different country. She was taken into hospital last winter, and I was told it was related to her liver, but no real further detail. Attending a consultant appointment with her last week has unearthed

Confused and seeking clarification
Hi folks . . . I have attached a letter from Hepatology which (to me anyway!) appears to contradict itself? In summary . . . a US in September 2021 showed increased parenchymal echogenicity (PE) due to fatty liver. Follow up bloods and a CT in April 2022 revealed nothing further. I then had a telephone

Doing well on Taxol. TM down by half!
I'm a long timer (20 years on 3/1/24, with bone mets since first diagnosis) and have done extremely well. Lobular bc, E + P + her2neu - at diagnosis. In 2023, it became triple negative and I was on Xeloda for a few months. It stopped working and I've been on Taxol for about 5 or 6 infusions. CA 27

New to the form
hello, My mum sent me this information with the hopes that I can find support and information as I’m starting out my journey. I had been having irregular periods and lower back pain for a few months. I would take medication and just push on. In December, I had such severe pain I called my husband
