I got diagnosed in March but it took some time to see an oncologist
they started me on anastrazol. and 2 sessions radiation on sacrum plus IV for. the bones but I was continuing to loose weight lost over 15 KG. and getting weaker and more pain. then I went to London to get a second opinion and seeing a. doctor privately who is prescribing a different protocol abemaciclib that seems to be working I stopped painkillers. started to gain weight. and feeling stronger so I am hopeful but this protocol is very expensive. So far I didnt have any neurological involvement but now since last night I am getting pins and needles and tingling in my right foot. Does anyone else have something like this cancer in spine that might be starting to attack the nerves? does anyone else have epxerienc with abemaciclib?
