  • thank you / i am still waiting for a date for treatment to start and physically my breathing is worse when i walk the dog.  my oncologist is treading carefully with the chemo as my intestrial lung disease complicates things / the drugs could cause a flare up of pneummonias which is pretty bad / they have no clinical trial ready yet for the AKT1 mutation which is also present so my only chance of extending life is to have the chemo / i’m sick with fear of the unknown and the effects of chemo - has anyone else had these complications
