Hello! Mom is 82 and was diagnosed in January with mets to bone.
Started drug ALECENSA about three weeks ago.
Was taken to ER 6 days ago with low blood oxygen/shortness of breath.
Hospital diagnosed pneumonia but antibiotic/antifungal not working and they have taken her off the ALCENSA.
Having a hard time getting advice re next steps.
Do we prioritize getting back on the ALCENSA or another drug?
Any experience with the drug resistant pneumonia?
I’m prepared to bring her home to hospice but don’t want to forego something useful if it might help.
thanks for any thoughts!
