LouT Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 Hi Ginger and welcome to our forum. Well, you've already beene through a lot on this journey, haven't you. You will certainly hear from other EFGR mutation folks in the next little while. While I have not had it, we do have a Forum for EFGR folks and you can find it here. In the meantime, please feel free to ask any questions you may have and know that you'll soon be meeting some wonderful people that can share their EFGR experience with you. You're not alone, you have us to add to your list of support. Lou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judy M2 Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Hi Ginger. Yes, you've been through a lot, and I know how it is. Hopefully you're finding Tagrisso tolerable with manageable side effects. I was diagnosed at Stage IIIB exactly 2 years ago. I've had chemo and radiation and started Tag in March 2020. Finally NED in April 2021. There is a private Facebook (Meta?! Ugh, what a name) group that you might be interested in: "Tagrisso (osimertinib) Patients & Caregivers Group". There are great resources here at LUNGevity. You're not alone! LouT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Galli Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Welcome aboard Ginger. Tagrisso is good stuff! Judy's already chimed in and has had good results with the medication. Others will soon join her. Stay the course. Tom LouT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
