Trodelvy - any info to share?

Hi @Jgameau and @lisa1407
Jgameau, Just saw your message and think it is wonderful that you were able to travel for 7 months. -though not so good to come back and face more chemo.
I am still on Trodelvy - 31st dose - and I'm sorry to say the side effects are still myriad and constant and seem to change all the time. I think my wheels( exhausted body) might be starting to fall off. For the last month I have had a lot of backpain so am taking morphine and other painkillers. Still very tired all the time also.
My husband forces me out for a walk most days and even though I wake feeling awful, the walk helps clear the fog and the pain.
I am still on 50% dose. My hair has grown back a bit but very strangely- last regrowth prior to Trodelvy was a sort of a loose afro. Now it is very short, dead straight and thin boyish look - a la David Bowie.It is really good to have SOME hair, though no eyebrows still.
I hope you are managing. Please let me know.
Send hugs xx
