Right kidney removed 4-21-06. CT 4-11-07 showed multiple tumors in both lungs. After approval from ins. co. started Nexavar on 5-15-2007. Had hand foot syndrome, sore mouth, constipation but tumors shrank in 3 mo and were gone in 6 mo.I was off work for 5 mo then went back to work as side effects backed off. It is 7-27-08 and tumors are still gone. I know nexavar works. It may not be for everyone but I was in good health until tumor was found in right kidney. My diagnosis is advanced renal carcinoma (Clear cell type). Published: July 27, 2008 ::

This drug was used to treat metastatic liver cancer. The major side affects were blisters on the bottom of my feet and the palms of my hands. It also caused sores and tenderness on the inside of my mouth and tongue.It also caused diarrhea. I had to stop taking the drug because of the side affects. Published: January 23, 2008 ::

Had metastatic Kidney Cancer three years ago and had the left Kidney removed. Clean for two years until a brain CT revealed 12 small mets. Did three weeks of Radiation and put on Nexavar. Now a year later and still clean. Side effects passed after a time. Lost 65lbs, from 268lbs. to 203lbs. Very weak and tire quickly. It's getting better, however. I think it's working!. davemiller1590@yahoo.com Published: May 08, 2008 ::

I have angiosarcoma of the head and neck. I have had several tumors removed, been on chemotherapy for 2 years and had 33 treatments of radiation. This year we found 2 tumors on my brain and removed them with the Cyberknife. The chemo I was on was: Doxil, Taxol and Avastin. This year they put me Taxol and Avastin but my legs went numb, so my doctor put me on Nexavar. I have several blisters on feet, my hands hurt, my mouth and scalp hurt, and for the first time, am not able to work because of the pain. I have been putting Bag Balm on my feet as told by my doctor, and this helps as it keeps the skin softened, but still hurts too bad to stand on for 8 hours. Published: October 16, 2008 ::
