Re: Jerri - diet on procrit?

[Guest guest]

Hi Pat,

My Dr. didn't mention any diet but by this time I was

lucky to be eating much at all. I have lost 30 pounds

(now 120) since starting tx. I just try and get

whatever calories I can into me.

I am lucky so far with no issues other than the

nausea, weakness and extreme shortness of breath.

Still off of work and probably will be for the

duration.

I have an appt with my dr tomorrow but it looks as

though I still have another 11 months of tx to go.

Well at least I haven't lost all of my hair (about

half).

I can ask at my appt if there is a special diet.

Good luck and hope that you feel better soon.

Hugs,

Jerri

Hi Pat,

Back from the doc's and I asked about the diet on

Procrit. He said that the only thing that he has

heard about is eating green leafy veggies (folic

acid).

Hope you feel better soon. I too am off for a nap.

Hugs,

Jerri

Hi Pat,

Sorry that you are still feeling bad. I too am not at

my best and am trying to get ready to move. From a

two bedroom apt with a two car garage to a one bedroom

without a garage.

You can imagine how much stuff I am going to need to

go through. Now is the time that I wish I had a man

in my life lol.

Hang in there,

Jerri
