Hi thank you for your response,yes fingers crossed it’s just an infection.But very happy liver and bones stable,I was not expecting that they had found something on scan but I suppose this disease catches you out when least expecting it,as I feel so well and the capecitabine treatment I am on I have absolutely no side effects,which I am thankful for as I know they can be horrific,so again I thank you. stay save brenda

Hi, I am hoping someone can give me some information.Had results of scan today,liver and bone mets stable.Unfortunately there is something showing on scan in right lung very small,they say it could be an infection or cancer they are unsure.as they put it (question mark)Have to wait for six weeks for another scan as onocoligist said if it where to be an infection it will clear up in that time.Has anybody had this happen to them. thank you

Hi ladies, Good news yesterday my treatment with capecitabine is working shrinkage to liver mets,Yipee.Was on pablociclib and Letrozole this stopped working after a year,thought to myself if the first line treatment does not work well how is second line treatment going to work,but there you go,how wrong I was,no side affect atall.So decided to go away to Hydro and spa hotel in Ayrshire.,with my husband. On a bit of a rant,but enjoying the start of my weekend away,I am in a hotel which is absolutely lovely they have a beautiful treatment room,which gives shoulder,neck and back massages,also facials and manicures.I had asked if I could possibly have a shoulder neck back massage but also informed them I have secondary breast cancer.I was told that they had No Onocoligy therapists.I left the treatment pretty peed off as I thought large hotels with call themselves hydro spas,would have someone trained,for this.I was thinking about the fact that they advertise spa weekends but obviously not for people suffering from cancer. Might go and suggest to manager about training a therapist to do onocology therepy. Rant over.

Hi puglia I was diagnosed in 2017,with breast cancer,lumpectomy,radiotherepy and tamoxifen.Then in 2019 secondary breast cancer to hips,pelvis,spine and mets in liver.Then in May this year was told suttle growth in two of liver mets,then started capecitabine.Just a little dryness in feet and a bit red but nothing to worry about I have hydromol ointment that helps if feet are to dry.

Hi puglia I have found capecitabine much better than Pablociclib and Letrozole.My white cells where always to low ended up on 75mg,always felt washed out.With capecitabine I have had absolutely no issues have been on my new treatment since May. Family have also commented on how much better I look,I have first scans on 27th August.Results on the 10th September.So quite anxious about this.Hope you find this treatment kind to you.Xx walsh

Hi,love mama, Thank you for this information.I am beginning to think I have a few treatments to go,when onocoligist told me that liver mets where growing I thought that was me done and Capecitabine was last resort,but the information that I have found on the forum is contrary to what I was thinking.So I would like to thank all for your kind words,and reasurrance. love to all.xx

Hi Nicky, Thank you for your post.Again reasurrance is what I need, I thought once the hormone therapy stops working it would be chemo from then on,so that’s good to know.Feeling a bit more positive this morning,after reading a few posts from other ladies.Back on the rollercoaster ride and see where this journey takes me.Thank you for your email.xx

Hi, looking for some reasurrance.or advice.Had been on pablociclib and Letrozole for 1 year for mets to liver 4 mets,hips,spine and pelvis.was told today that two mets are showing that they are slightly getting bigger.Onocoligist has said next treatment is Capecitabine,I am gutted I only managed a year,on the pablociclib and Letrozole,which makes me think I will run out of options so quickly if I only managed a year on the newest drug .looking for ladies who can help Settle my brain as it is going haywire,xx

Hi 4748, the ringing in your ear must be awful.have you tried ear phones with a little music as this could distract you from the constant ringing.Sounds crazy but just a thought.Hope you feel better soon,you are probably washed out.you need to be king to yourself.xx
