Hi,
My father has incurable metastatic kidney cancer which has spread to his liver and lungs.
This week he started 600mg votrient which will be increased in a month. We've looked up all the side effects, most of which he was dealing with anyway.
I just wondered if anyone had any experience of this drug and its side effects and when it seems to start working (help increase his energy a little)
Many thanks

Sorry to read your father is so ill. If you are on Facebook, look up kidney cancer support network - it is for patients and families of people with kidney cancer and there is a wealth of information and support on there.
Wishing you and your Dad all the best. X
