My mom just started ALimta as part of a trial study. She got 6 rounds of carbo platin and taxol with avastin which worked while she was on thme but stopped working as soon as she went on avastin alone for maintenance. She started on the trial 3 weeks ago and had her first round of Alimta 10 days ago. The side effect that bothers her is extreme fatigue. No rash yet....
