My mom has just started her third round of Sutent. Her first month she took it for 2 weeks, caught a cold/something viral and ended up in the hospital for three days and then continued 10 days later to finish the month. Side effects not too bad. Second round she went the full 28 days and had daily bloody noses, congestion, hand, mouth, feet and even belly button sores as well as extreme fatigue, loss of taste/appetite and low blood counts. She takes 50 mg and is not going to try two weeks on and one week off for the next six weeks. Is there any way that anyone has found to prevent the hand/feet sores? Does using the creams work as prevenative medicine?(she is using Aquaphor) Is anyone else having less symptoms with this type of dosage? Please let me know - thanks in advance. She will also go for a cat scan after the third round.
