At the time of dx ,zero symptoms found out through Annual health screening.The 6weeks CT scan showed the cancer reduced in volume. Side affects are minimal. Hoping to hear some inspiration stories, inputs from the same experience people and news regarding the innovative treatments and so on. Best wishes MM
LexieCat Posted September 14, 2018 Posted September 14, 2018 Hi there, and welcome! Sorry about your diagnosis, but glad to hear you are having good results from your treatment! I don't have much relevant experience to share--I was fortunate enough to be diagnosed at Stage Ib, so I only needed surgery (along with continued surveillance). But we have lots of members with advanced cancer who are doing great with the new treatments. Glad you found us--this is a great place for information, support, and inspiration!

mmk1000 Posted September 15, 2018 Author Posted September 15, 2018 Hi Lexie cat and BridgetO, Thank you for your message. Regarding ttagrisso side effect, I don’t usually have diarrhea but sometimes after meal I have urgent bowel issue with watery stool for one time only. My one prescribed me the meds but the pharmacist warned me to take it only if I have quite a few time of diarrhoea or else it will turn up constipation . So I are not take this Med for one D issue . Any inputs are welcome. Thanks in advance. MM
