Holiday on Palbociclib

Hello, I have just been diagnosed with secondary breast cancer and am due to start Palbociclib / Letrozole next week. I would love to go away for a short break in the UK in December but was wondering if anyone knows whether there is a preferable week in the cycle to book?

  • Hi Tilly and welcome to Cancer Chat.

    I'm sorry about your recent diagnosis but I'm glad your treatment - which you can read up on here and here - will get under way next week.

    Hopefully some of our members will share their experiences and advice with you soon but if you haven't done so already, it would be worth discussing this with your medical team. 

    If you'd like to get our cancer nurses thoughts on this as well you're welcome to give them a call on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    I'll have my fingers crossed you're able to get away later in the year :)

    Kind regards,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
