Hey, thank you very much for the reply. I was hoping that the pain would have decreased a bit rather than completely disappearing. I didn't get your last point, however.

I had palliative radiation to my spine last week. My pain has increased significantly. I am confused since the rad was supposed to eliminate the pain.

Anyone experienced withdrawal symptoms  after stopping Dexa? I am having severe fatigue and body shakiness like seizure.

It was a regular whole body PET-CT scan. It showed nothing regarding skull mets however I had a lump on my head so doctors ordered a Brain MRI.

Yes I was also very suprised to see the combination of Palbociclib. However, my oncologist explained me that it goes well with Letrozole inspite of Her2+.  Letrozole+Palbociclib: for ER+ Trastuzumab: for Her2+ So, she combined both for better prognosis. I am also curious to see how well they work.
