"Everolimus was part of my first line treatment. I had to dose reduced twice. I was very fatigued and the nausea and diarrhea put me in the ER 4 times. I did have a partial response but I had a very poor quality of life. I was dependent on electric wheelchair and was unable to do daily task. My hair thinned I lost a lot of weight. My appetite was non existant and I got mouth sores. But it did work for a while so I would do it again"
