My treatment has just changed as Palbociclib stopped working and my cancer started to regrow in my right lung again. I’m experiencing headaches dizziness, light-headedness, muscle pains/weakness in the legs etc. Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same?

Hi kruba,
So sorry to hear you are experiencing these issues while on Cape. I was absolutely fine, bar the odd redness on feet/heels and hands. I didn’t really have any neuropathy (I can feel it now, though, as I am on IV nab Paclitaxel). Have you told your medical team about it? They usually need to tweak the Cape dose if one is experiencing difficulties. My initial dose stayed the same throughout the 4 cycles I did, then the CT scan showed progression. So no more Cape for me, back onto the IV.
