Hi @gigi123, I want to add my warm welcome to those you've received from @nursed2075 and @shaila1902.
Gigi, if my calculation is correct, your husband started Tagrisso (osimertinib) yesterday. As a targeted therapy for people with EGFR exon 19 deletions or exon 21 (L858R) mutations new hope. How are you both feeling about things?

Nursed and Shaila, what time of day did you find best for you for taking the once-a-day pill?

I prefer to take Tagresso just before breakfast at 8.30 am everyday. Its important to take it at the same time and not miss a dose so I have a double alarm set up on my phone for it. I have Stage iv Lung cancer with mets in brain since Feb 2017.
