      I have been on Zelboraf for 9 months and am NED as of my last scans in Dec.; I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced recurring side effects of the Zelboraf.; I seem to have times that I do really well with minimal problems, but then I start feeling really faigued, headaches, and joint pain again.

          I started Zel Apr 12, with a little Ipi thrown in last yr also. Side effects do come and go for me.

          I am now on a 2 wks on/1 wk off schedule plus prednisone.

          Saw your profile – it runs in my family too. Melanoma sucks!
