    Hi TC
    I'm from the Colon
    Hi TC
    I'm from the Colon cancer discussion board. I've been on Zaltrap for 8 weeks (4 treatments). My biggest side effect is stomach cramps and stomach tenderness, kinda like I did 1000 sit ups and my stomach is sore, mainly when I'm moving so sitting still no pain.
    Hope this helps,
    Ron
