Decision Point
My MIL's primary onco has stopped her aramidex and wants to start faslodex injections. Has anyone had a love one treated with faslodex? She has 5 more radiation treatments left. she is having difficulty difficulty swallowingdue to the radiation and that she is her legs are very weak not able to walk on it and it or standard hola no control of her bowel or bladder
her pain levels continue to increase. Dr has increased her meds but has recommending more bone scan and bone densitiy testing again. We think its pointless since her radiation oncologist feels add/l radiation is pointless
