Thank you for your replies.
I got my Mom on New York State's EPIC plan. She has received her Tarceva and it only cost her $20.00 for a 30 days supply. The doctor wants her to start taking Tarceva after Thanksgiving in case there are any concerns and he can't be reached due to the holiday. She is getting more and more fatigued. She is starting to shake more. She should start on the pills this coming Monday. She had a baseline CAT scan today and was just barely able to make her appointment. I have to take her in a wheelchair to the appointment because she is so weak and unbalanced. I pray the Tarceva works and makes her feel better and stronger.
