KF1 Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 My wife is now on week 13 of Tabrecta. So far tolerating well. Fatigue and minor stomach issues from time to time. She has also just started getting some swelling in her ankles. Very minor so far and is alleviated by simply raising her feet when relaxing. She also had a follow up brain MRI for numerous brain Mets. This was her first follow up since diagnosis The two large lesions were greatly reduced in size. The 15 minor lesions were gone and there were no new lesions. We are hopeful that the Tabrecta played some role In this since she also had WBRT in April She has her first PET scan next week since starting Tabrecta in May.

Tom Galli Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 KF1, Great news about the MRI and of course very hopeful that WBRT keeps down brain mets. Tabrecta is good stuff and very hopeful that next weeks PET scan shows vast improvement. Stay the course. Tom Justin1970 and LouT 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
