I have had 4 chemo treatments 3 weeks apart followed with bilateral total mastectomy ( primary large tumor -975 gms in right, small lump in left)- surgeon very pleased with clear margins, all tumor removed along with one palpable node and 4 later identified microscopically following by 30 radiation treatments- previous enhanced scans showed no evidence of distal tumor... so my question- I know need endocrine therapy ( yes, tumors were HR +, HER-neg) but questioning if I will augment with CDK 4/6... ? anyone been on that drug? How were the side effects ? thank you
