So this sucks...

Yeah I don't have a catchy title for this one. This is the best way I can put it. On Sunday night, I went to the ER because of extreme shortness of breath. I was admitted and given oxygen, which of course helped. Two days and many tests later and it seems everyone agrees this is probably inflammation from the treatment, which is a side effect. With my already inflamed lungs, the treatment sent me right over the edge. So I'm home now but still need supplemental oxygen. I think my breathing is improving VERY slowly each day and I'm hoping the further from treatment I get, the more it improves. I'll be making follow up appointments with my Fox Chase docs soon. 

That's all I have for now. A minor setback, I hope, until the treatment starts working. Until I know for sure what's up, though, I'll be canceling any plans. I know a lot of you wanted to get together, but please understand when I say no for now. Lugging around oxygen tanks isn't fun. Just talking is straining. I'll keep you posted. 

Xo, Lisa

  1. Hi Lisa: I am with you in hoping this is a minor setback. I have asthma and know only slightly what you are experiencing. Push out with your tummy—not your lungs—for a good deep breath. Love always, Patt
