      Have been on Zelboraf for about a year.  Have experienced sun sensitivity, joint stiffness/swelling,

      sun sensitivity, and callouses on feet.  My dermatologist treats the feet and has resolved the problems.

      Almost too painful to walk before treatment.  Had several on each foot.

      Diagnosed with metastatic melanoma in 2010.  So far, the Zelboraf has prevented any

      tumor growh or additional tumors.

      Good luck
