I have non-small cell lung cancer and I'm currently taking Tagrisso (osimertinib). This targeted therapy blocks specific proteins that help cancer cells grow and spread. I'm dealing with some side effects like dry skin, nail changes, diarrhea, and fatigue, which I understand are pretty common with this medication. I'd love to connect with others who have been on a similar treatment path and hear about your experiences. • What side effects did you experience with Tagrisso, and what helped you manage them day to day? • What do you wish you had known when you first started this treatment?

Managing side effects from targeted therapy can feel overwhelming, and connecting with others who understand this journey can make such a difference. The experiences shared here often include practical tips for skin care routines, dietary adjustments for digestive issues, and energy management strategies that have helped fellow community members navigate similar challenges. Hopefully others will share their insights about what they found most helpful during their treatment experience.
