I've been on the TEACH trial since the middle of May. Pretty sure I received Tykerb vs. the placebo. Within the last 4-6 weeks, my feet (top and side) have begun to hurt so bad it's difficult to walk at times. The bones almost feel like they are fractured! Has anyone else had such symptoms in their feet while on Tykerb?
