Palbociclib trial ladies(how you doing)
Just wondering how you other ladies on this drug are faring. I'm on the maximum dose and seem to be doing quite well. I'm on cycle4 and have had were side effects. Hopefully you are all going well.

Thanks so much for the reply.
The radiation effects on the lung are scary. I also had mets removed from my diaphragm too. So the breathing is at times tricky. At work I do a gazillion stairs a day and that is great incidental exercise. It really makes a huge difference to my breathing and I can tell when on holidays the significant difference.
I hadn't thought about the fat cells - oestrogen connection. Thanks for sharing - did a quick read and there is so much evidence to support this.
I had done extensive reading on sugar and refined carbs and cancer in general.
When I decided to cut these two things out of my diet, my excess weight fell off me.
I've not been as diligent of late and the mid section bulges are creeping back, I am starting to feel unwell and I'm not sure if it is connected but my cancer marker is slowly heading increasing.
I really appreciate your reply. It has made me reflect and make a new resolve to get back to the way of eating that I know is best for me. To keep this disease at bay for as long as possible.
Glad that you have found a way to keep motivated to make changes to your life that will make you as well as possible. It feels so important to have 'control' and to be doing what we can to combat this (other than just the meds, ops, zapping etc).
