I had been taking with out a break for 9 weeks then I had some complications so I stopped for about 12 days. Now back on. Would be greatful to hear what others are doing. Thanks, Deets  Deets Mon, 25 Jun 2007 00:00:00 GMT My husband had initial surgery in Nov, 06 and had two small tumors in the liver with a questionable node.  Did radiation for 7 weeks and now is on Nexavar 800 mg daily.  I think this is his 6th week of nexavar and the side effects have not really been a problem.  He does have tenderness on the bottoms of his feet but raising them at night seem to alleviate the pain.  We're not sure, but sometimes I also think that it gives him angina within about 1/2 hour or hour after he takes a dose.  But then it goes away within about 15 minutes, quite strange.  Hope this is helpful!Aimee  Aimee Sun, 01 Jul 2007 00:00:00 GMT  On 7/1/2007 Aimee wrote:My husband had initial surgery in Nov, 06 and had two small tumors in the liver with a questionable node.  Did radiation for 7 weeks and now is on Nexavar 800 mg daily.  I think this is his 6th week of nexavar and the side effects have not really been a problem.  He does have tenderness on the bottoms of his feet but raising them at night seem to alleviate the pain.  We're not sure, but sometimes I also think that it gives him angina within about 1/2 hour or hour after he takes a dose.  But then it goes away within about 15 minutes, quite strange.  Hope this is helpful!Aimee  Thank You for the feedback, always nice to hear how others are doing. I have been having some troubles with side affects. So now I am on a reduced med plan at this time. I guess my body just needs a break.But I have been on Nexavar since end of May. I have had really good results so far.Take Care Deets  Deets Mon, 02 Jul 2007 00:00:00 GMT
