On Xeloda- shortness of breath?

[4thTimesTheCharm]

Just finishing the first cycle on Xeloda after “graduating” from years on Faslodex and Ibrance for mets to bone, now extending to liver. Have experienced a considerable uptick in shortness of breath starting on day 11 of 14 day dosage. Today (#13) I am truly feeling the stress of walking the slightest distance. 😕 It’s a bit disconcerting. Inhaler I use use in spring for occasional asthma is no help. Ideas or thoughts? I will see onc in 10 days.

Wise precaution. I know if I call he’ll say come in- and I’m 2000 miles away (family funeral). But if it gets appreciably worse I’ll get it checked out before I return. Thanks.

I was really hoping this was a “common” occurrence. Oh well.

Check your doctor I ended up with blood clots in both lungs which are more likely when we have cancer

Well, that’s not a happy thought.

I’m getting the msg.

I just don’t want to draw undo attention to self for no good reason as this family needs healing not another worry. D!mn cancer is serious inconvenience!

Yes - I appreciate your thoughtfulness. Trying not to make a mountain out of an ant hill. Being watchful...

Call your dr. And you shouldn’t have to wait to be seen either
