Stage 4 Breast Cancer with bone mets

Hi, I had stage 2 breast cancer in 2014, had FEC, single mastectomy and radiotherapy. Started on tamoxifen. Switched to anistrozole Aug 2018. Was doing fine then November 2018 was told it’s back in my spine, rib, hip, shoulder and on my ovaries. Put back on tamoxifen and although by count went from 49 to 35 initially it then shot up to 83. Just started Faslodex, zoladex, denosumab and abemaciclib. Can’t seem to find much information about this treatment (just the fact sheets from the hospital) Has anyone else had this treatment? Would like to hear how you got on with it? How long have you been on it? Is it successful? Everything really.

  • Hia shazzab I started abemaciclib with injections in buttocks. I did not have a good start but adjusting dosage from 500mg a day to 200 has helped. Although I do still have dihareah daily. Apparently it's a new drug but your the first other person I have come across on it
