I started allupurinol last tuesday and had a terrible reaction, was admitted until Sunday. Started Venetoclax yesterday and knocked me on my butt. Nauseous, vomiting, fatigue and headache. Will see how I do today, dr is doing blood work everyday starting today. Hoping things level off, I do have medical mariguana card and ate half a candy and that helped a lot! Hoping all goes well today, but if not I have my candy to take care of the symptoms.

Marti - I hope today is a better day. A friend had a bad reaction to allopurinol several years ago. It's my understanding that it isn't common for that to happen, but definitely not fun if it does!
