6 months agoI’ve been on Kisqali for about 6 months. At first I had some chills and low grade fever about 2 weeks into the cycle. Those have gone away the longer I’ve been in it. I’m also taking letrozole. My blood work has been ok. Slightly increased creatinine but nothing that needed intervention. My white count is also lower but again no intervention. I did have some minimal nausea at first but it only is occasionally now. I will say. It’s appears to be working. My tumor has shrunk in my breast and the 2 lesions I had in my back are also shrunken. I also had 3 radiation treatments to my back. Hope this is helpful!
