I have been on letrazole and ibrance for over a year now. It seems to be working, however the diahrrea is horrible. Like every 3 days I’m having it. Then I take immodium and then after a few days , here we go again. Does anyone else have this problem?

Digestive side effects from these medications are quite common, and many community members have shared similar experiences with managing them. This type of cyclical pattern can be really challenging to deal with while already navigating treatment. Have others found specific strategies or timing adjustments that helped them manage these symptoms more effectively?

Talk to your oncologist about taking 1 Imodium everyday. Drink 64 oz of water everyday. I used Depends and got Everdry panties. At worst, I got IV fluids 3 times a week. If your BP drops, you may need an IV. Praying for you.
