Still having side effects from Calquence

[helenolton]

I am getting numbness in my hands and feet, as well as pain, I am on one pill a day, but it is not helping. I will be going to Ohio State on April, 19 th and probably be starting Zantibrutinib.

Also, I still have the hives. I have been having good blood counts except for my RDW and Platelets.

I want to thank everyone for always replying with helpful advise.

Thank you,

God bless everyone!!!

Hi helenolton,

It's a shame you have to wait so long to start Zanu, seeing as it just might resolve (some of) your troubles ...

Btw, any chance you take Zyrtec daily? Of the over-the-counter allergy meds, it helps the most w/ hives, etc. (Studies, not just my opinion.)

Thank you, for all the information. I have always been allergic to meds. I tried a baby antihistamine and got a reaction from it the other day. I hope Zan will be better.
