I had a lobectomy a month ago to remove a metastatic breast cancer tumor from my left lung. (In 2006, I had a tumor removed from my right lung. My original diagnosis was in 1993.) I am still feeling weak and limited by the surgery; however, I started on Tykerb and Xeloda a week ago. Has anyone else taken these drugs following surgery? As I have read many of your comments I get the feeling that many of you are leading very full and active lives. I am looking forward to that but don't feel strong enough yet.
