When I was first diagnosed they found I had breast cancer that metastasis the the bone it was in my lower back. This gave me terrible back pain. After three months of treatment with ibrance and letrozole pain is better. I go for scans in a couple of weeks hoping things are working for the better.

Hi, Iโ€™m also taking Ibrance and letrozole. Started nov.2016, now on the 75mg. Itโ€™s been good for me. No problems with joint pain. Iโ€™m praying it works forever!!!๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š

I do get occasional joint pain on letrozole. Some times it feels like soreness. Other times it feels a bit more sharp. It's unpredictable meaning I could go for months without feeling any pain, then all of a sudden I'll feel it for a while. Then it goes away again. All in all, I can handle it so I decided to stick with the letrozole and not switch to Aromasin.

I'm starting Ibrance next week. I couldn't tolerate Kisqali (after the first month, it caused drug induced hepatitis), so I'm going to try Ibrance with letrozole. I'll be reading your answers with great interest. Hugs and best wishes for all!

Hello I have been on Ibrance and Letrozole treatment since 2020. The only side affects I've had are headaches,fevers and some loss of hair. But the worst are the constant UTI. Which have placed me in the Hospital twice. My PCP has been a God send we keep an eye on it and catch them in the early stages with preventative antibiotics. I'm glad that we have this platform to talk and compare questions and treatments. Thank you MBT. ๐Ÿฉท๐ŸฅŠ๐ŸŒน๐Ÿ˜Š
