Hi

I am on day 4 of my first cycle of Xoleda and Tykerb in the UK (LEAP study). I have had some advice from the research team as to side effects and how to deal with them but nothing on the scale of the information and advice here. I thought I had been doing well on the diet front being mostly vegan for four years (occasional laspses mostly to appease others when dining out), vegetarian for six years before that and trying to have organic produce where possible but have seen several references in messages on this site to the BRAT diet - sounds hard work but if it helps with length and quality of life I am prepared to do whatever it takes. Is there more information available via the web or a published article/book that I could track down?

Also I have entered my history - how do I get it to appear on my posts?

Best wishes

Terri
