Marysurvives

Welcome, Mary.
I too have MBC in my lung. I'm also on Ibrance 75mg now. You've come to the right place. We're all here to help you in any way we can. I also get the shots. My arthritis & fibromyalgia hate them. Dr. gave me a month off as I was in so much pain. When you become stable ask for a week or so off. I'm 75 with a-fib. I'm not on the site regularly. I think everything is in God's time. When I do chime in, it seems to be the right time for all.

Hi, Marysurvives! I see you're new to the web site. You have found a great resource here. There are a lot of really wonderful people on this web site - very kind, helpful, and supportive. I hope you find as much support here as I have. I bet you will. Take care.

Welcome, Marysurvives! I am also metastatic, TNBC. I understand the hand/foot syndrome. It has brought me to tears. Started my 8th cycle of Xeloda today. Have tried every lotion that has been suggested, I did find it helpful to soak in the tub with Epsom salts. If you are not on blood thinners, you can try anti inflamatories. Cold packs seem to help, too. Hoping you can get some relief! We are here to support each other.
