renal cell carcinoma
"Had radical nephrectomy Aug 2014 and I was clear until Jan 2016 when spots found on both lungs. Had ops to remove the cancer on lungs (big mistake). Cancer returned within 6-8 weeks. Started Pazopanib 5 mths ago. It's working!! Lung spots have shrunk. Side effects seem to come in waves for me. I'll have a few weeks of normal bowel then I'll have a week or so when it's bad. Hair has turned white (I'm 47). Bad taste in mouth, I've lost weight (10lbs), appetite comes and goes but it's mainly not there. Ulcers in mouth have gone but can't get rid of the ones in my throat. Blood pressure is normal. I feel tired at the end of the day (earlier than usual) but no real fatigue. Overall I'm feeling good and still working. Keep fighting all, God Bless"
