It’s been 12 months on this therapy to reduce 2x 10mm lung nodules which are now reduced to 3mm and staying put so far, so far the side effects have been manageable ie sore and bleeding fingers high blood pressure, fatigue but lately I’m struggling, I have Oral thrush which is causing malnutrition and dehydration as I can barely eat or drink let alone talk, I am halfway through a course of antifungal mouthwash from the hospital but it’s not improving so I’m concerned about the spiralling of other problems due to my weakened immune system
Sorry for moaning but I’m just a bit fed up
