TerSera NurseSupport is here to help with every step

Connect with a Clinical Nurse Educator (CNE) to answer questions about carcinoid syndrome diarrhea (CSD) and XERMELO

TerSera NurseSupport is here to support you and provide recommendations to help you live your best life with CSD. Your nurse can serve as a resource for:

  • Starting medication: Help you understand XERMELO and what to expect
  • Advocacy connections: Connect you with helpful advocacy resources
  • Disease education: Teach you about CSD and how it works in your body
  • Nutrition education: Help you understand the relationship between diet and CSD

When you talk to a CNE, ask about the Find Food You Love book. They can send you a copy for free! It’s filled with 100 pages of easy-to-follow dietary information and recipes designed to help people with CSD.
