I am excited to be here...
I started
Tagrisso
immediately (targeted treatment), followed by radiation for the brain tumors, and then followed chemotherapy. I am a 57 year-old, non-smoker and extremely healthy.

Tagrisso vs Erlotinib
did say that
Tagrisso
dose cannot be amended so not suitable, I nodded at the time but now unsure if that seems odd?

Tagrisso and hair thinning
Hi, I have stage 4 cancer diagnosed in May 2021, I have been taking
Tagrisso
since July 2021 and apart from a really bad skin reaction in the first weeks have tolerated it really well, just a few minor side effects .

Vancouver liquid biopsy NGS for lung cancer?
Hi all, I first signed up to this support group when my Mum was diagnosed NSCLC in 2018, she sadly passed away in 2021 after trying Iressa (~1yr), chemo (~1yr), and
Tagrisso
(~10m).

Starting Tagrisso
I had a three week course of radiation and just started
Tagrisso
two days ago. All my joints are sore. Hopefully, this side effect will ease.

Docetaxel with Nintedanib , how nasty is this .
I have been taken off
Tagrisso
so with nothing at the moment. Very scary. At the meeting with a Marsden doctor the were sort of saying that all I could do was to cross my fingers. They didn't seem to hold out much hope for BLU. I should point out that I dont have insurance.

NED means I should feel happy, right?
I started on
Tagrisso
pretty soon afterward and am still on it. I had an upper left lung lobectomy and a wedge resection of the lower lobe to remove the primary tumor, as well as 14 lymph nodes (2 were positive) Dec 2021.

Ingrown Toenail due to Tagrisso - preventative care?
Hi Community: My father has been on
Tagrisso
for nearly a year now. And he's experienced dermatologic toxicity such as pimples and fissures on his finger tips. Lately though, he's had two ingrown toenails which he's never had before. He's going back to the podiatrist for tx.

Distressing brain MRI
I have been on
Tagrisso
for just 6 1/2 weeks and because I have a rare EGFR mutation which has no viable study on the outcomes, the oncologists wants to assess the efficacy of the treatment asap in case I have to change treatment.

Stage 4 lung cancer but its my legs that are causing problems
My cancer either briefly responded or didn't respond at all to the variety of treatments given but I am currently on
Tagrisso
and so far so good. In the past I have had CT and PET scans and it was found that there were no metastasis in the brain and just a small spot on a rib.

Tagrisso and antibiotics
I have recently started on
tagrisso
which I am desperately hoping will work as so far the other treatments have not or have failed very quickly.

Tired and miserable with bladder problems. Side effect of Tagrisso.
I have been taking antibiotics for what I thought was a very bad urine infection that I could not shift. I have been referred to the urology department of the hospital and on Thursday had a ultrasound. On Monday will have a camera pushed up the urethra and into the bladder. My GP has told me that there
