Breast Cance
"I&#039;ve been taking it for 5 months.  After 6 weeks on 10 mg my lymphedema arm got infected &amp; real swollen--I was told it was shingles &amp; Lyme disease.  After 2 rounds of antibiotics I went back on 5 mg.  My subsequent scans show liver mets decreasing.  My insurance cap was exceeded after 1 month($$$), but I qualified for a Novartis program for free medicines--check it out.  Side effects on 10 mg were intense--like chemo.  5 mg is much more tolerable, still I must take Protonix every day for gastric upset.  And I get really itchy."
