I would appreciate hearing how you are getting on with this drug. My wife has bone mets and has been put on weekly oral cycles as after 2 years on Afinitor her markers continue going up. 

many thanks

  • Hi

    I'm sorry that no one in this group has been able to tell you about their experiences with this drug yet.

    If you haven't tried it already, if you type 'vinorelbine' or 'navelbine' into the search bar in this group you will find a few older posts which mention it.

    I would also be interested to know how this treatment suits you too. My Oncologist mentioned trying me on the oral version at some point in the future. 
    Thank you

    Hi

    I know about veins,  as only use my left arm due to having had Cellulitis and Lymphoedema on op side in past. The veins on that side are pretty rubbish now. 
    I was thinking about requesting a Portacath when the time comes if I have it via IV. 
    Thank you for replying. Hope it goes well.
