Good afternoon, my mum is on day 3 of lenvatinib and is struggling to even get up without feeling like she needs to lay down again! Should we speak to someone? Also how long do side effects usually last? Thank you

Hello Angge
Our nurse team aren't back in the office now until Monday morning. Were you given a number by the hospital to call if there were any concerns about your Mum whilst taking this treatment? If so, then certainly do give them a call. Alternatively, you can call NHS 111 for advice and support over the weekend.
It's understandable that you're feeling worried about your Mum so do reach out to the local health services in your area who will be able to offer you specific advice and arrange for your Mum to be seen if necessary.
Best wishes,
Jenn
