Guest guest Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 Long time no hear from me, but I have not missed a message during past few years. My cousin, Dona, was dx'd end of Dec. 2000 and began a trial at MDACC in April 2001 (Dr. Talpaz). (Zavie's list #141). Since she does not have email, I phone her every night with all the news. There is not a side effect she does't have from 400mg (sometimes 300). but at the moment she wanted me to ask about possible side effects from Aranesp. She has frequent shots, but the one this week brought forth (about 4 hours later) almost comcplete imbalance. It was almost impossible to maintain an erect position. Also some nausea. It is somewhat better today, but still difficult to walk. I googled to some sites, and they list multiple possibilities, but since she has had the med multiple times, she is concerned. Thank you, Avis AKA Hertz Nurtle to old-timers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
