I know we’re all different but I start on Letrozole and Abemaciclib today and the side effects read horrifically.

I have left breast, lymph nodes, spine and scapular METS confirmed, with ‘suspicious’ very small lesions on my liver and spleen.

The alternative is not worth considering just yet - I’m 62, before this I had a good life and I’m due to be a grandma in August. 

I’m going to attempt to work, albeit from home.

What are your top tips for coping with the physical and emotional side effects? How can I try to find joy in my life now? I’m feeling very fearful.
