@pjsfla you raise an interesting question about resistance that develops with these meds. Are you taking a different AI for your MBC? I am going to send you a private message about how you were diagnosed, so as to avoid a tangent in this thread.

Forgot to say , yes , taking faslodex shots . aka fulvestrant . That is another AI , to rid the estrogen , so to starve the cancer . 1x a month . It isnt enough alone so also on Ibrance , but hasn't been shown to work yet . Fingers crossed , scan likely in May / June to see if working or not . Been a roller coaster , and problems with slow appts at Kaiser perm . They blame covid of course . Best , PJSFLA
