Hi,
Is anybody using this new drug (Afinitor-everolimus) and have you had any good results?

Hi Marilyn,
I have been on afinitor and exemestane for 6 weeks so haven't had any scans yet to determine how I am responding. I have had some side effects which have been a bit hard to manage, mainly a rash / pimples on my face and upper torso, really bad fatigue and little/no appetite. My oncologist started me off on 10mg and I am seeing her tomorrow so may need to lower the dose to see if this lessens the side effects. Luckily though I haven't had any mouth ulcers, only a dry mouth and slightly inflamed gums. How are you coping with side effects?
