a month agoI also have the same diagnosis but 2 vertebrae dissolved. Prior to that I had no clue I had cancer - just thought it was arthritis in my back. I had surgery in my back to add two 10” rods, 2” screw, 2” spacer, multiple bolts cemented to my spine. But I can walk on my own. I get monthly infusions for my bones and take Letrozole and Ibrance. Ibrance causes my white platelets to really drop. My oncologist put me on Verzinio but I had a bad reaction so he put me back on Ibrance. I have to have labs every 2 weeks. I also feel like I’m walking alone. I have great faith in my Lord and that’s gotten me this far. Also, I am a Realtor and have had the best year in my 24 years as a Realtor and that’s because of my Lord.

a month agoWalking through spine surgery and bone mets while maintaining strength takes incredible courage, and finding ways to stay positive during treatment challenges shows remarkable resilience. Many in this community understand the journey of managing treatments like bone infusions and dealing with medication side effects, and sharing experiences about what helps maintain hope and purpose can be so valuable for others facing similar paths.

a month agoI take 2 Advil and 2 Tylenols to decrease Verzenio muscle pain. Also Icy Hot and Capzix Cream (wear gloves when spreading) is helpful. Also ask your doctor what else you can do.
