Hi All,
My mom has been on Tarceva for a month and a half. I think that she is not handling or responding to the Tarceva well. She has extreme fatigue. Her appetite sucks and yet she takes Megase to increase her appetite. My mom's hoarseness has never improved.. It is caused by a swollen lymph node pressing on a nerve. She is scheduled for CT scan on Monday and it will be a telling story.

Kristi
