Navelbin--hope I spelled it right.
Just wondering what results people have gotten on this drug. I'm starting it on Thursday. My onc. took me off of Tykerb and Xeloda--too many nasty side effects.

What causes the discomfort?
I suppose it is the meds that causes the discomfort???? I never had any problems until I started on Xeloda and Tykerb meds.

Not yellow--but bluish, greenish
I have a slight blue/green tint to my eyebrows. Who knows??? So I said to my husband, "Not bluebeard, but bluebrow."
It's a mystery.

Good to hear from you
Thanks to those who have added their experiences or thoughts on WBR. Love my doctors, but it sure is nice to hear from those who have actually experienced this.
I'd love to hear more!
