WellnessWarrior Message: Nexavar Side Effects Patient WellnessWarrior Recommend this Message Report Abuse Email a Friend Track this Message [Remove] Subject: Nexavar Side Effects Date: 04/06/2008 I have had Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC) twice. Once in the liver in 2001 it was surgically removed and it came back last year in the lung and lymp node. This have also been removed , and a bit has grown back in the same spot but not in the liver- Knock on wood! I have been on Nexavar 8 days and they had to take me off because I developed such an intense rash it looks like an allergic reaction to the drug. I hope not- we will wait and see. Has anyone else experienced an all over body rash that is hot? They may ease me back on to it after the rash subsides Secondly I keep reading in other messages about Y90 and Chemo Imbolization can you expand more on those for Hepatoceullular Carcinoma patients. I have been to 3 Comprehesive Cancer Centers and no one has ever mentioned them. Where are you getting these treatments. I have also been researching Cancer Centers of America- has anyone gone there?

The Thera sphere is a better treatment as it has less side effects and does not damage any of the liver except the tumor itself. It is a fairly new treatment in this country, but is having some success. Private Reply Quote Reply to This Message
