@cvcheryl57 No, I just decided that since the Doc would not authorize the Verzenio without a hormone blocker, I told her I wouldn't take it then. I decided to take a "breather" from the 2 AI's, the double Fulvestrant shots/month, and Tamoxifen pills I'd been trying sequentially for about 2 years.....so I've been without any BC meds since March. I wanted my Spring & Summer to focus on gardening, and I feel so much better.
My story is a bit weird in that I have an in-the-chest tumor that is said to be a recurrence of my BC from when I was 43. I had a mastectomy then, and 6 mo. of chemo....no cancer for the next 30 years. I also have a second type of cancer, Neuroendocrine tumors, and the monthly shots are doing a good job of keeping them in check, with little side effects the past same few years.
So I have the possible interaction of the drugs for one problem interacting with the drug for the other. I am not sure what I will do next to shrink the BC in my chest. Going to switch to another cancer center for another opinion than what I've tried already.
