    Welcome, wkelly1368! I was diagnosed de novo early this year at 44. I’m also on Ibrance and had rads to L2 and S2, and have no active disease as of my last scan. Join us on the Ibrance and Bone Mets threads. It’s nice to meet you!

    wkelly1368, hi there! I join li77 with an invitation to join us on the Ibrance thread! There is another male who is on Ibrance who joined us recently (in the past year). It is great to hear that your cancer is stable on these medications. I have been on Ibrance and Fulvestrant since 11/2019 and have done well on these meds so far. Check out the Ibrance thread:)
