Has anyone been on this chemo? I have just started it in tablet form. I would like to know:

~ How sucessful it is?
~ What the nside effects are?
~ Do you loose your hair?

  Hi Tina
  I don't have any personal experience with this chemo but wanted you to know that I am praying that it works for you, with minimal side effects.
  
  Best wishes,
