    I am now 17 months into Mek combo and have had very little issues until this month. Started as pain in back and legs that went away and now seems to be a little more persistent. After 4 days in a row, decided to call the oncologist. I am having CT and MRI, am praying this is nerve or muscle related and not bone Mets (which I had before). I know the statistics with Mek and am concerned it has stopped working, but it seems like a sudden onset. This makes me anxious.

      I'm BRAF and NRAS negative so can't really add anything other than I will pray your results are good and that you are able to have peace. The anxiety is overwhelming and if I told you I was at peace all the time I'd be a liar and hypocrite. I'm just sorry you're experiencing these anxious emotions. It's hard but hang in best you can!
