I do have all kinds of "side effects like nail problems, low blood pallet, low white-cell count, and another cancer occur after 3+ years taking Tagrisso. However, I got 7+ years life-extension with Tarceva (17 months), Tagrisso, and radiology treatments of my brain and lung. Before next stage chemotherapy treatments, I would like to know: IF THERE IS ANY BETTER CHOICE OTHER THAN CHEMO TREATMENTS?
My mom has been taking this for 2.5years. she started with Tarceva. Was on Tarceva for 18 months and now on Targrisso
My father passed away after taking this med for only 3 weeks.
I Was Taking Tarceva150 It Was Great But After 10Years It Stopped Working For Me. My CEA Score Start Rising Very High. So AnyWay I Started On Tagrisso80mg In January 2017 My Heart Start Beating Too Fast.
Tarceva worked for 6 mos. then optivo for2 mos.Now tegrisso has shown great improvement in screens and tumor marker.
Have been taking Tagrisso for 6 mos. now. Except for occasional leg cramps and dry skin and scalp, I’m doing fine.
