Hello

I’m new to the group and looking to hear from people who have had Eribulin. I have to make a decision on whether to try this chemotherapy. Are the side effects manageable?

Also those who have experienced numbness how have you managed it? I am very wobbly on my legs and my muscles are weak in my thighs/hips. I am very worried about what’s the best thing to do and what not to do.)

Thank you

  • Hi  and a very warm welcome to the online community

    I don't have the experience you're looking for but I noticed your post hadn't had any replies yet. This is possibly because this is such an active group posts can slip off the first page before someone with the right experience has seen them. Replying to you will 'bump' your post back to the top of the discussions again.

    While you're waiting for replies you could take a look at this information from Macmillan about Eribulin which mentions possible side effects. Also, if you type 'eribulin' into the group's search bar it will show you all previous posts which mention this treatment. You could have a read through some of these and respond to any of the more recent ones if you think the poster can hep you further.

    It would be great if you could pop something about your journey so far into your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar diagnosis. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
