I've seen a few posts from people experiencing joint/muscle pain while on Venetoclax and am wondering if this might be cause my shoulder problem.
Started Venetoclax in August and ramped up to 400mg over 4 weeks and have stayed there. Started Rituxamib in September and completed that in March.
Sometime around September I developed a pain/discomfort in my left shoulder.
My body has been pretty deconditioned thru earlier bouts of illness so I thought I'd inadvertently injured myself.
GP initially diagnosed this as a rotator cuff injury and some exercises improved it a bit but the problem persists , particularly at night. I've now had an ultrasound - 'slight inflammation in joint, otherwise Ok" and x-ray "normal, no arthritis".
Has anyone else experienced a joint etc pain issue that is localised and seems to coincide with Venetoclax ?
This is easily tolerable at the moment but i'd like to know what the likely origin is.
Seems odd to be local to a shoulder if a drug side effect.
thanks for reading & best wishes to everyone out there.
