I am a new member to this forum. Stage IV. Twenty months on Abaxane, w/wo
Avastin, and Herceptin resolved large chest mass. Zometa for bone mets, which
are widespread. Started new regime two weeks ago of Xeloda and Tykerb. Had severe diarrhea, not helped by Immodium. Then swelling of the lips and sores/ulcerations on lips (painful) started. No sores inside mouth, as is more typical. Has anyone experienced these problems with lips?? Thank you for any help or guidance that you can offer.
