Hi everyone
Well I did 20 days of 50 mg of sutent, Up to day 12 I realy thought I was going to breeze through it, I lost all of my taste except for sweet ,Then the headaches, very high blood pressure ,sleep apnea, mouth sores severe weakness ,nausea. heartburn. dry heaves, extreme sleepiness.which I could not do because of the sleep apnea. Man what a week, Finally on sunday I went to ER and they did a battery of tests Brain scan [ clear] chest exray, some lung tumor shrinkage, Heart test, lots of blood work,
Because of all the shortness of breathe and the weakness ect the Dr stopped the sutent, They are doing more heart tests this week and then they will decide if I go back on it or not, If I do I think it will be a lower dose, What do you all think?
My question....I have many many of the symptoms of low blood sugar which I have had for years but lately they have become worse and more often, I read that if one has a lot of tumors they will eat up all the glucose in the body causing you to have these symptoms, Ever heard of this before,
Well I hope this finds everyone in good spirits and doing well
Carol
