Mydad was on Nexavar for 4 months.  He also had high blood pressure.  Watch that his blodd pressure doesn't increas to a dangerous level.  High blood pressure is its #1 side effect.  My dad was taken off the nexavar because they did Slective  Internal Radiation (SIRT).  SIRT made him extermely tired and damaged his healthy liver.  He was given three monthe to live on Feb2,2008 and fought a great battle.  He became so weak and started to go into liver failure.  He passed away on May3,2008. Stick with the Nexavar and don't let any doctor use him as a testing patient. Good Luck.

I had a really tough time with Nexavar, and am not a fan.

 Keep an eye on the blood pressure!

 

Good luck,
