      Awesome news.  Keep that ball rolling.  I am on my first month of Zelboraf.  It's kicking my butt.  A year ago i was running 20 K a week.  Now I can barely get out of bed.  Are you experiencing fatigue?

        David, apologies for tardy reply, but I needed to get back to my computer (can't post on my Kindle Fire). As to fatigue, I never experienced it to the level you are describing.  I'm now retired and I think I could probably take a daily nap but not sure of the cause – Zelboraf, poor sleep, or just getting old.

        Anyway, if your butt is getting kicked, I hope your tumors are also being kicked!

      Congratulations!  I am new to this board, and on my first week of Zelboraf.  I am hoping to mimic your results!
