Re: New member question
Well that went well - not! GP phoned me and I explained symptoms etc and she's given me a prescription for co-codamol!
I'm no longer seeing the oncologist so I'm back in the care of the GP and it's pot luck who you get to speak to.
I'll take your advice Linn and hope I can get your recommendations here in the UK as I've never heard of them!
My other problem though is that I have heart disease and my LVEF has gone down to 38% (started at 42 due to damage caused by heart attack) so I'm not sure if some of these symptoms are linked.
I'm due to have another echo in June to see if it's improved since stopping Herceptin
Thank you all for caring and taking the time to reply to me
