Hello, I have just completed my third chemo with DD and AC. I have been managing with few side effects but did take a little longer to recover this third time (last Monday) feeling ok for this weekend. I am also having neulasta and haven't tried Claratyne, just assumed the issues were related to the heavy pollen around, no nasal hairs etc. Have been blowing my nose a lot with the sniffles but it's manageable. I am taking the anti-nausea medication for the first 4 days as prescribed but really not wanting to add additional things unless I have spoken to my oncologist. Will be interested to see what others say. I have found the neulasta very helpful and apparently the VitD plus multi vitamin (one a day) has seen my blood tests coming back ok each cycle so far. I haven't had any bone pain as such so far and if I am a bit achy, take a panadol osteo in the morning or at night before bed.
