"Have just finished 12 weeks of this for stage 2 breast cancer. After my first chemo, I was told to go and buy some Gastro Stop for the drive home, but I have been very lucky. The only side effects I have had are some aching in my thumbs, but I can live with that. I am now about to start Femara for five years, and reading some of the reviews and side effects, I'm a bit worried."

"Helped lower tumor markers significantly when recurrence occurred. Slowed cancer growth for 6 months before neuropathy got too bad. Did not make my wife as sick as Adriamycin/Cytoxin, which was her primary treatment at first occurrence. On the downside, our insurance company, BCBS Illinois, did not cover Abraxane, and we were left with a $54,000 bill. The drug company eventually provided a replacement drug as hardship."
