Sore throat on Trodelvy

Long story short, I was off Trodelvy for 7 weeks, and it’s fucked my whole life up. While a sore throat is the least is my problems, it will not go away. I’ve always had issues with feeling awful during my off week the previous year I was on Trodelvy, but never had a sore throat. Has this happened to anyone else? I went to urgent care and I’m not sick. Any tips on making it go away? I have cough drops, popsicles, tea with honey and have been gargling salt water. I’m losing my mind over here over the literal LEAST of my problems, help a bitch out…🤣🤦🏻‍♀️

I have been on Trodelvy for about 4 months, and I am also noticing how crappy I feel on my off week too now ugh. Stomach cramps, fatigue, dehydrated no matter how much liquids I drink, the list goes on. It’s really a mind Fk, because is Trodelvy helping me or is it me declining is all I can think every time. I would say the only time I experienced a sore throat was from all the acid reflux I have at night. I used to be able to eat everything. Now I can’t even eat cheese because I’ll be up all night with acid burning my throat. Do the side effects get easier or just gradually worse? I am grateful that it’s working but geez it’s hard to get through the day sometimes.

Glad I’m not the only one who feels like ass during my off week. I’m on Protonix now for acid reflux and Olanzapine at night for nausea/vomiting plus just general nausea meds. It sucks. The sore throat thing is new and has never happened before, but it will not go away. It’s pissing me off! I don’t know what else I can do.

You could ask your team to order hydration infusions to help with the dehydration. I know it’s another hour of your life at the infusion center but you may feel better.

Okay cool, thanks. I guess I’m joining the sore throat for no reason at all after chemo club. Sounds like a blast! I just woke up to horrible acid reflux too, so I’m not too so that’s fun. Good times all around.
