What helps with fatigued and shortness of breath? Stage 4 Lung Cancer

We’ve only seen palliative twice. The first time was early last spring. The second late spring for pain not related to cancer. The consults were not ‘overly impressive’. We have an appt tomorrow with palliative oncology per one of the docs suggestions. Big hopes it’s worthwhile.

Carlies, you might be interested in reading this discussion from members and the video from a Mayo Clinic palliative doctor, Dr. Maisha Robinson, to help you prepare for your appointment tomorrow.

I'm sorry you were underwhelmed by your palliative consults thus far. I hope that palliative oncology is helpful, not only for your husband, but also for you.
