I have a non small cell lung cancer, stage four. I have resisted all medical intervention since December 07, diagnoses of my cancer. I followed Bill Anderson protocol. In July 08, my lungs were so filled with fluid, that I had to have pulmonary doctor remove about 2 liters. Almost as much was still left in the lung. At this point I agreed to try Tarceva chemo pill (150 strength). It would keep fluid at bay, I was told. It does. It also reduced the pain.
I refused any other chemo for now.
But Tarceva proved to be difficult on my liver.
In August, my doctor reduced my Tarceva to half a pill (75 strength).
A month has gone by, I have the same benefits of Tarceva at half a strength, and lesser side effects.
I do not think Tarceva is going to save my life - but am pleased that my quality of life has greatly approved. I do wonder, what my results would have been if doctor started me with the lowest dose (25 strength), and than build it up if necessary.
