More on Tarceva Side Effects

So, Oncologist wrote back and asked that I call her nurse practitioner first thing in the morning (today is Sunday). I am definitely going to do that. Will probably go to see her tomorrow. Meanwhile, I've been doing more research online. I found this altMD article about Tarceva (Erlotinib). Looks like I've hit the jackpot on the side effects, sigh. I also think I have keratitis.

One thing to cheer me up is that "Skin rash actually signifies better outcomes for pancreatic and lung cancer patients."

I like that last line very much. But I do hope you are able to get some relief for these symptoms.
Best of luck.
