@PatsyN. Sounds like u have been through the ringer!! Luckily (touch wood). I haven’t had too many bad side effects apart from quite bad bone pain from the Neulasta injects to boost the WBC. My oncologist has given me stronger pain relief for this round and if that doesn’t work I can have stronger tablets. I wear black nail polish which I am hoping will protect my nails and I get abit of a rash on my chest for a few days. I like @Sister and @kmakm would love more info on why it was banned in Japan - might have to do some Dr Google work. @jewel-ee that’s what I found if u have 4 or 5 days where u feel like crap - every day I feel the tiniest bit better. Best wishes to u all ladies xoxox Steph
