I'm particularly interested in anyone for whom AIs and/or Faslodex has failed, and had progression to the bones. How long have you been stable on this combo? I'd love to hear of any successes.

I am also on Herceptin and Perjeta, but I have an inkling that the ER+ is the culprit for the bone mets.

    hi calcon

    I have been on tamoxifen and xgeva for the past 31/2 years. I was diagnosed at stage 4 with bone mets and have been on these meds since diagnosis. I'm due for scans in 2 weeks but have been stable for the past 31/2 years. I've been very lucky in that I have minimal side effects and for the most part live my life and do what I've always done. It's an easy combo of meds for me but I know at some point that will change but wanted you to know that the meds have been successful for me so far. Good luck!
