    I have heard the afinitor causes runny nose and sneezing. But I haven't taken it myself. If the symptoms are bothersome be sure and talk to your oncologist. Especially if you have a fever!!!!

    yes, I have this problem too after about four weeks on this combo. My oncologist allows me to take five days off and I normally will be fine. Press on. This is quite easy to bear. I have ulcers initially but I am fine now. I drink lots of water. The other side effect is acne. Ugly but does not affect my quality of life

    I take over the counter antihistamine. I also use peppermint essential oil. I drink ginger water. And soon it's time to take a break from the affinitor and I will well. Press on. My tumors in my clavicle nodes are no longer palpable.
