Has anyone with stage four breast cancer been on Palbocyclib and letrozole for more than five years.
Hi, I am sorry I don't have the experience to help you myself, but I just noticed your post hasn't had any responses yet, as the site is quite busy. My answer will bump you back to the top and I hope someone with the right experience will be along soon.
Best wishes
Thanks for the reply, I thought perhaps my post hadn’t submitted as I hadn’t had any replies. Cheers again.
Hi
I don't often look at the forum as life bumbles along. original diagnosed 2012 double mastectomy chemo an radiotherapy. Well for long time then 2019 felt unwell secondary found in ovary. Removed an started palbociclib with letrozole. I'm still here an still on it. All beit the losest dose 75mg cos side effects. I have noticed over the last year my blood results always iffy an often have to have an extra week off meds. At the moment I'm having a three week break as platelets don't want to improve. But positive I will bounce back. So I've been on palbo for 5 years
