Xofigo Headaches

Gents,

Need your help. I had my first round of Xofigo and began experiencing intermittent headaches throughout the day. MO is puzzled but Nuclear Medicine mentioned headaches as a possible short term side effect. Would love to hear from you all on your experience going through Xofigo treatment.

Happy Thanksgiving ! Enjoy the family!

Thanks. Jay

I did Xofigo last summer, but luckily with no side effects. Hopefully your headaches will go away as your body adjusts to the treatment. Good luck!

I did 6 months of treatment in 2018. It worked extremely well for me as I was chemo-naive and my white blood cell production had not been compromised. I was the only man in my group whose bloodwork allowed me to finish all six treatments. I don't recall headaches being a side effect I experienced during treatment. I'm so sorry you have.
