  • Hello Tray223, 

    Thank you for sharing your experience of abemaciclib and I am pleased to hear that you have not suffered any significant side effects. I am keeping everything crossed for you that you won't get any and that the treatment will be effective. 

    I hope that you will hear from other members of our community who have also been diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer and who have been taking abemaciclib. It helps sometimes to talk to others here who are in the same boat and I hope that someone will be along soon to tell you more about their own breast cancer experience. 

    You can also get in touch with our nurses if you have any questions at any time - they have a free helpline 0808 800 4040 which you can ring Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm 

    Best wishes,
