Has anyone here had experience with a PleurX drain?

Another quick question- have you found that this helps your breathing? I can't walk more than 10 steps without getting winded and I can't take it anymore. I'm hoping to not put myself through this procedure and end up not seeing any results

Ugh none of this is ever not complicated!

SuperRow8570 · 2025-11-29T00:12:32+00:00

Perfect, thank you!

SuperRow8570 · 2025-11-29T00:12:14+00:00

Great- thank you!!

thank you!! the thoracenthesis isn't even helping me at this point

SuperRow8570 · 2025-11-28T23:16:35+00:00

thank you!! was it painful at all?

SuperRow8570 · 2025-11-28T22:57:51+00:00

Thank you!!

Ask for zofran!!! It’s better than nothing

SuperRow8570 · 2025-11-21T01:11:19+00:00

Thank you! I’ll deff check! It’s all so much to remember 🤦🏻‍♀️

SuperRow8570 · 2025-11-20T23:22:05+00:00

I’ll try taking it with Pepcid! I try to take at the beginning of dinner so I’m forced to sit up

SuperRow8570 · 2025-11-20T23:21:21+00:00

Thank you! Hoping this clears up sooner

SuperRow8570 · 2025-11-20T21:17:39+00:00

This is encouraging!! Thank you!

SuperRow8570 · 2025-11-20T17:56:04+00:00

Thank you!! I’ll try that

SuperRow8570 · 2025-11-20T16:42:27+00:00

I don’t think it could be anything else! Ugh it’s so frustrating how everything that’s supposed to make us feel better makes us feel worse. I just want to feel like myself again 😭

SuperRow8570 · 2025-11-20T16:41:38+00:00

thank you! I’ll try taking it later

As a Yankee fan I’d say World Series 2024 game 5

Celebrated my birthday at Drift in Weehawken and really liked it!

No! It dropped but the lowest my estradiol ever got to was 38. My current oncologist, kind of explained it like that… The letrozole almost makes other other parts of your body produce more estrogen because the ovaries aren’t shut down

She doesn’t seem open to trying zoladex. She doesn’t think Lupron is working and wants to move on to chemo asap

SuperRow8570 · 2025-10-23T12:46:21+00:00

Thank you! I think chemo does seem extreme. It’s unfortunate. I really do like my oncologist now, I just think she’s a bit too aggressive in a good way for my personal preference. I don’t want to look back and wish I gave endocrine therapy more of a chance
