After waving goodbye to my right kidney four years ago, the nodule on my lungs have started to grow. At some point they reached the point where they are called tumours.
Before they became to big I was advised to go onto target therapy a drip called sunitinib.
O am told all though they are not chemo they are under the same heading, my question or discussion points re two fold:
Are side effects worse or better than chemo.
I seem on a three week cycle two on and one off and repeat. I am fine for the break week and the first week but towards the end of the second week I get sick and a little dizzy. I have called sick for a few days every third week since I started. This makes me feel guilty and all though work makes the right noises I hear mutterings in the background. I work with younger staff including my manager all of whom are in their twenties where I am 51 yes young. I don't expect sympathy but am wondering does your body get used to the treatment after a while
If y you got his far then thanks for reading.
All the best for all of you.
