Can anyone tell their experience with kisqali. I just started taking today and am a bit nervous about side effects. What side effects have any of you had using this medication. Any info would be greatly appreciated.🙂

Starting a new medication can feel overwhelming, especially when managing breast cancer treatment. Many community members have shared their Kisqali experiences here, and side effects can vary quite a bit from person to person - some experience fatigue or digestive issues, while others have fewer noticeable effects. The community here has been incredibly helpful in sharing practical tips for managing any side effects that do come up, so hopefully others will chime in with their experiences to help ease those nerves.

I could not tolerate 600mg at all so my dose was decreased to 400mg. I still get headaches and nausea. Over the last couple of months I have developed pretty significant itching.

I am just finishing my first round. I haven't noticed any physical side effects. My blood work after 2 wks showed low WBC. We'll see how they are when I test again next wk. My anc # still acceptable. Ekg good do far. Good luck. All these meds are scary.
