My mom's into her third of 6 weeks of Iressa after a recurrence in june- she finished chemo and rad. 12/03.Dr. at Johns Hopkins said it works ( shrinks tumor but doesn't actually extend life) in @ 10% of cases.Mom celebrated yesterday because she woke up w/ a rash on face and has diarhea- which is what most success patients experience. I'll let you know how it looks after her ct scan in 3 weeks.
