Trodelvy - Looking for positive feedback

Options

Good morning everyone! I have been fighting this battle since 2004 when diagnosed with Stage 2 B breast cancer with metastasis to one node out of 15. After a partial mastectomy and taking Arimidex for 8 years, was in remission until 2019 until it came back with a vengeance to a Stage 4 with mets to my bones and a lesion in my kidney (stable). I have been taking a variety of oral agents over the past couple of years until they were no longer effective when my scan results showed mets to the liver and omentum. For the past several months I have been on IV Enhurtu with great success but unfortunately now this drug is failing. I will be starting Trodelvy this Friday and hopefully would love hear of feedback about this drug. I am concerned about the diarrhea, but I had that with Enhurtu as well and have managed that well with Lomotil. I am nervous to beat the band…argh!!!
