Hello.  I am looking to connect with members who are being treated with Elahere or who are considering it.  
I am now platinum resistant (after 3 lines of chemotherapy over 3 years) and my oncologist has been discussing Elahere as an option.  My tumour was previously tested and I have the required receptor.   I am waiting for an opthamologist appointment   

I am interested in hearing from anyone who has been considering Elahere or who has started treatment. 
Thank you!

Hi @cynthiaj ... I was checking back over some posts and saw that there hadn't been any responses to this so I wanted to respond and get the post active again. Perhaps there is someone out there who is taking or is considering being treated with Elahere who may have missed your first post. I know it's in its "infancy" in terms of usage in Canada. Hopefully there is someone else out there in our community who has been approved for use and/or is considering.

I have it waiting in the background.  Side effects sound wild.  Some women did really well on it and others found it to be too much or it didn't work.  But those who

respond to it get some extra time so I say try anything when the time comes - you never know.  Can you get a second opinion from another oncologist to 

help you decide? Good luck!

I don't know anyone but I am on an E layers Facebook group. You can ask to join and talk with lots of people there.
