Hello,

I think your constantly being sick, depressed, dizzy and very weak is due to breast cancer and related surgery.

Depending on the last time you get a full check-up by your oncologist, and if it was months ago, then, should get checked now.

Plus, blood tests need to run in order to rule out:
- anemia (complete blood count, iron deposits levels)
- liver/kidney issues through liver/kidney function tests, urine analysis
- check levels of vit.D, calcium and electrolytes to rule out related deficiencies.

I think you should keep well hydrated, breathe fresh air, and be sociable in order to freshen your mind and give peace to your soul. Be in close contact with family, friends, relatives as this will help.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Albana Sejdini, General & Family Physician
