Thank you for responding. I am currently on Sutent. It is working well but the side effects suck! It is hard sometimes to get up and go to work but I work with 1st and 2nd graders. They make the day a lot of fun. My cancer has not come back in my neck. I am just dealing with the lungs. I will keep you in my best thoughts. Rascalsmom
