Hi, my brother has had 4 chemo sessions and his last CT scan confirms there is no further spread of the disease for now ( wouldnt it be a miracle if this was the case forever!!), so is currently contained, however he has been so poorly, very very tired, a constant dull ache in his side, he has lost confidence to leave the house as he has had quite a few episodes of collapsing at home, although none since last sunday which is a good thing , he has been to see his oncologist today, they say again all scans currently show nothing more but they are arranging an MRI scan to be sure , in the meaintime they have also confirmed that his blood pressure is extremely low and this may also be the cause of the dizziness and collapsing.....they suggest more salt intake in his food etc, does anybody have any experience of low blood pressure/mesothelioma and any ideas? thank you
