As I posted before, I have elected NOT to continue with the Tarceva (still staying with the Gemzar though) because I felt like I had the flu every single day with no end in sight. As I have said, I would rather have 6 months of wonderful, or even normal, than 8 months of misery. But this leads me to another question. For those of you who are getting other treatments, with or without Gemzar, how do you feel, how are you functioning? this is important to me as I research other avenues of treatment. I can take feeling pretty awful if I know that there is some respite, some relief in sight. What I can’t take is feeling awful all the time such as with the Tarceva. If I can’t be a mother to my son and can only lay around the house puking or miserable ALL the time, what is the point. I want to make memories for my son and me, not nightmares. So, how do you all feel?
