Guest guest Posted January 3, 2003 Report Share Posted January 3, 2003 Hi sherrie, Cytoxan is a chemo drug . It is stronger I think than Meth and Imuran. At least that is what I am told. Everyone is scared to take it. I know you cant be on it for very long because I think the risk of it causing cancer and other things is greater. I have been on it for over a year. It caused all of my hair to fall out. I use to have long straight hair and it was light brown. Well it has come back but it is a different texture and darker and curler. But I am thankful that at least it came back. It also threw me into menapause and I have other side effects. I get the mouth ulcers and stay with nausea. Sometimes real severe and other times just queasy all the time. But it got me out of a severe flare where I ended up in ICU so I cant complain too much. I think Sandy is also on it.But it looks like it isnt helping her much right now. I am praying extra hard for her now. My RP has never gone into remission or I havent had a really flare free day yet. It is always smoldering in the back ground. Oh heck what can I say I am just a hot blooded woman.HAHA I really dont know how many have every tried it and if they have had good results. I would love to hear from them if they have. I dont know what else will work if this doesnt. But I am positive something will. Even maybe some old black magic or backwoods home remedies.HAHAHA No seriously GOD will get us through all of this.I have faith.I just hope he has.hahaha oh heck let me out of here before I get into trouble. Sending hugs and prayers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
