Hi everyone

Just adjusting to the news that my liver cancer has grown, so now abandoning capecitibene, after 9 months of a good quality of life. I do have pretty advanced liver mets and things were looking very bleak this time last year. 8 sessions of taxel saved my life and then I have been kept stable on capecitibene.

 

Now they are doing various tests to see if I’m suitable for Eribulin. If so, I will start on 10th April. Managed to get a date after next weekend when we have a big family celebration for my son and husband’s birthdays!

I remember seeing some posts from other ladies on eribulin but couldn’t find them today.

 

Is anyone else still on this and how are you finding it? 

Thanks ladies

Hi phoebe

Sorry that Cape has stopped working for you. The very active Eribulin thread is under Treatments and Medical Issuesin the secondary part of the forum. I was on Eribulin for 8 cycles when it was decided to take me off it in case being on chemo would affect my bone marrow (I’ve had several different types of chemo over the last 2-3years) It was however effective at reducing several mets down to one larger one and a couple of tiny ones that only an MRI could pick up rather than a CTscan. Good luck with it and hope you can join in the Eribulin thread.
