"I have been on 800 mg of Nexavar for thyroid cancer since 6-15-2011. Have had issues with the hand/foot blisters, thinning of hair, diarrhea, and blood pressure. My oncologist has had me back off the pills several times to try and alleviate some of the blisters, but am off work and decided to just deal with it while off. As of 7-30-2011, the blisters have stopped, but I deal with the peeling and re-peeling of my skin. On blood pressure medicines now and have pills for the diarrhea. No appetite loss, and thankfully no nausea. A visual inspection from my oncologist approx. 1 month after beginning the treatment determined that the pills may be shrinking some of my tumors."
