Nitewind, First I would make an appointment with your primary care doctor, they should be cheking out your heart, EKG, Stress test, or Echo, alos check your 02 sats (oxyegen level) low potassuim can also cause these syptoms as well as low HGB. Then I would fire your onc. and get one with a caring attitude. Most times when I have problems I see the doc I work for before I call my onc. Doc I work for is the one who has ordered my CT Scans and Pet Scan and my tumor markers. I love my onc, but she too will not test like I think she should. Best of luck!
