Osimertinib versus chemo

Hi Northerner 

I don't have any experience with this drug but noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. I've searched the group for previous posts which mention it and found these for you to have a read through.

Thanks latchbrook  I have spoken to friend after posting the other day and she worried about side effects so suggested she speaks to Mac nurse if she unsure pointing out I can only know about my own treatment but her team will treat any SE .

I had both chemo then Herceptin due to Her2 so she knows treatment can be lengthy no matter which cancer you get 

Thankyou for your reply 

Hello, I  was put on to Osimertinib (Tagrisso) after receiving a stage 4 diagnosis with a 4 month  prognosis.  It worked! Very well until now  as it is no longer effective.  Two years bonus and no serious side effects except some minor nausea for the first two weeks.  Butnow the trouble starts and have started Chemo to buy some time.

 IanH I am sorry to hear that the Osimertinib has stopped working for you. I hope the chemo goes well for you. Where there is treatment, there is hope xx
