Hi,
Your taking treatment to throat cancer, that's chemo and radiation treatment has many side-effects, and you will have a general weakness because the loss of appetite will be there.
You often dyspneic while doing your work, you may be anaemic as your not taking food so there's an increase in pulse rate.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
