Guest guest Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 I had a very bad reaction to my first leukine shot yesterday, and we called the MD pharmacologist about it. He gave me some tips on how to make it better, and I came around, but was washed out by it. I had read from the insert this could be one's first reaction to this drug which was somewhat comforting! He said he could switch me to neupogen if I continued to have a problem, but they were the same drug. Anybody have a bad reaction to neupogen (or not)? Thanks!

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 Hi Ellie, I took Neuogen for 7 days after each chemo...I personally didn't have any problems with it (except, the anxiety asscaited with self injecting it). Hope you have similar success! from IN > > I had a very bad reaction to my first leukine shot yesterday, and we called the MD pharmacologist about it.

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 Ellie, that shot gave me bone pain, combined with the pain of the chemo, i had to take 3 or 4 advil every 4 hours and try to sleep the whole day, sometimes it was 1,2 or 3 days. Anggy. --------------------------------- It's here! Your new message! Get new email alerts with the free Yahoo! Toolbar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
