Has anyone taken Alectinib or Alecensa for an ALK+ lung tumor. Just curious about your experience with it. I will be starting on this soon.

    Just diagnosed in August...on Alectinib for 1mo so far

    I'll tell you, this pill is like a miracle, but its really just sound science. Attacks the exact mutation we have and started feeling the great effects as soon as a week into it.

    Good luck with ur treatment!
