Hi Teresa, we’re happy to share our experience. In late July of last year Jim began to experience unexplained weight loss, losing 20 pounds in one month. He experienced acid reflux and diarrhea daily. He used Pepcid for some relief of these symptoms for two months before treatment started. His symptoms stopped almost immediately after starting CAP/TEM even prior to the monthly lanreotide injections. He does have neuropathy on his feet which prevents him from walking more than 40 minutes at a time. He uses heel balm on his feet, which helps immensely.

I appreciate you sharing Jim's journey with NETs, @rose4jim2417. Each person's story is different, but we all fight the same battle with the help of our medical team.

How is Jim's energy level doing? Has he been able to gain any weight?
