Please stay away from this dangerous medication. Like others have mentioned, this drug spiked my CEA after just one round. After my doctor instructed me to stay patient with the results, my CEA continued to jump exponentially, to some of the highest levels it has ever reached. Imaging studies have proved that the drug has been completely ineffective, and may have possibly worsened my tumor by encouraging excessive growth. As a result, I am now having incredible difficulties walking as my metastatic cancer has spread to my spine. Since taking this medication, my quality of life has spiraled in a very short period of time. Prior to Lonsurf, I was physically active and energetic. After about four rounds of treatment, I am now wheelchair-bound and struggling with constant, debilitating pain. The drug has severely damaged my digestive tract, induces a constant ‘sick’ feeling in your mouth, and makes me want to vomit every time I take it. While convenient in tablet form, it is no replacement for intravenous chemotherapy. If you are considering a Lonsurf treatment regimen, please heed these critical warnings and stay far away from this drug. This is an extremely dangerous pill that will most likely worsen your cancer symptoms in a very short amount of time, in turn reducing your long-term chances of survival.

It destroyed my taste every thing tasted terrible, i found it hard to eat enough to take pills. It destroyed my ability to do anything and even my will to live. I felt like I had the flu, my digestive track was messed up, my stomach hurt a little more with every dose and would throw up despite taking anti nausea pills. I think I'll live out my life without it as it only on average adds a mont ... Show Full Comment

Hair loss at end of round one. Require a wig n oy w. Easy to take with few other side effects. CEA continued to rise after first round. Had to have an extra 2 weeks after round one before beginning round 2 due to low WBC count.

Lonsurf decreased the quality of my life completely. After three rounds it was found to be totally ineffective.
