Hi Stu I have been on Pazopanib for 6 months now as my kidney cancer had spread to my lungs. I started on the highest dose with made my Liver function go very high. I'm now on a lower dose and though my Liver function went a bit high to start with it has now settled down. I go for a scan next month so hoping that the drug is helping to slow my tumours down. Apart from feeling more tired after doing jobs I have been feeling reasonably okay.
So I wish you well and hope that the drug helps you.
I was on Pazopanib for 4 years and apart from high BP and subsequent breaks off the drug, it did it's job.. BUT then it stopped working so now on immunotherapy..still get very tired and try to nap in afternoons which gives me the evenings I suppose. Good luck to everyone....
I have chronic asthma and so far neither the lung cancer or the drug has made this worse. So fingers crossed the drug helps you. I have had a couple of side effects, the Liver one being the worst but this has now settled down. Another is quite a sore mouth especially the tongue. When bad I swill my mouth with salt water and always use Corsodyl mouth wash which was recommended by the cancer nurse.
