I've been researching treatments for my child who has plexiform neurofibromas related to neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). I've come across Koselugo 10mg Capsules, which seem promising. The medication works by blocking certain proteins in the body that help cancer cells grow, potentially shrinking the tumors. However, I'm a bit anxious about the possible side effects, especially the urgent ones that require immediate medical attention. I'm looking for any firsthand experiences or advice from anyone who has gone through this. How did you manage the side effects? Were there any unexpected challenges? Any insights would be hugely appreciated.
