    I recently starting getting really bad headaches/migraines. Started about a month ago. I'm wondering if the new ibrance tablets cause them? Always felt fine with the capsules.

    Hi Adymaria - I’ve been on Ibrance tablets for 3 months and haven’t had any side effects (started Ibrance 11/19). I would definitely call your oncologist and talk about the headaches and the fact that they started recently . One of my symptoms of my cancer recurrence last fall was a severe sinus headache on the left side , when I was lying down - it would wake me up from my sleep . It went on for a couple of months but once i was dx and started fulvestrant / Ibrance they went away - I think it was due to nerve compression by lymph nodes in my neck and superclavicle (all left side ). Hope you can get some answers !

    Thank you, will do. I appreciate the advice. The headaches have me worried a little. Definitely unusual for me.
