For Breast Cancer, Metastatic "Have been on Kisqali for two months. In the first week, three tablets every day, but due to side effects of diarrhea, nausea, and fatigue, reduced it to one. Still suffer the above, but not as severely. I do have Fulvestrant injections on a monthly basis. I am hoping with perseverance, side effects will decrease. I had breast cancer twenty-five years ago with metastasis in the last twelve, still not on the organs. I am 83 years old."

For Breast Cancer, Metastatic "I have been on Kisqali since September 2018, with no disease progression. Tumor markers in the “normal” range. Side effects: nausea, diarrhea, joint pain, some hair loss in the early stages, the occasional rash or skin sensitivity, fatigue. Having said all of this, I am living my life, working full-time and traveling when possible... life is good!"

For Breast Cancer, Metastatic "De novo diagnosis 3/21/18, started 600 mg with 2.5 mg Femara on 3/23/18. Single bone met on right humeral head. Complete remission in July 2019 (after 16 months). 32 months since diagnosis, still clear scans. Some hair thinning at first, along with occasional nausea, blurry vision (mostly in the AM), joint pain, and fatigue. Fatigue is the worst part for me, but my quality of life has not changed at all."
