How do you manage severe bone pain from cancer when medications aren't enough?
Community Member
2 months agoI have bone cancer and am experiencing severe bone pain. I'm currently taking three pain medications - Gabapentin (gabapentin), oxycodone, and Lortab (hydrocodone plus acetaminophen) - but the pain has become really intense lately. My care team suggested this might mean my current pain management approach needs some changes, and they want to reassess things. I'd love to connect with others who have dealt with severe bone pain during cancer treatment and hear about your experiences. • What has your journey with bone pain management looked like, and what approaches have you tried? • Are there any comfort measures or daily strategies that have helped you get through the tough days?

How do you cope with anxiety starting Kisqali and Faslodex for metastatic breast cancer?
Community Member
a month agoTwo years ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer and had a double mastectomy and reconstructive surgery. Did great without chemo or radiation, just a daily dose of Anastrozole. Fast forward to this May when I started getting shoulder pain. Just thought it was rotater cuff problems. After PT and many tests, I did not expect a metastatic cancer diagnosis. Well, tomorrow I start Kisqali and then Monday I get my first Faslodex shot and next month I start Denosumab monthly injections. Needless to say, I am so anxious about the "Unknown". Side effects, body changes, and my overall daily well being. I did really well 2 years ago and I fear what's ahead. Would appreciate any feedback, good or bad.I tend to overthrow things, which usually causes insomnia. I just turned 60 last week ago and never imagined this would be how I would start a new decade.

What are alternatives to chemo for metastatic squamous cell carcinoma?
Community Member
7 months agoHI there, I'm Michael Jacobs and have squamous cell carcinoma that metastasized from my neck and first landed on my liver then went to my sixth rib and pelvic area. I have found that the chemo we just tried is too much for me. I did three different compounds that put me in the hospital for six days with my immune system wiped out. I've decided NO MORE CHEMO for me. My oncologist wants to put me on immunotherapy but after reading up on the side effects I'm not doing that either. Does anyone here have any experience with ivermectin and fenbendazol? My wife and I have been reading some life experiences of people that have had their cancer go into remission and are completely clear with this. It certainly can't be any worse than the chemo.
