Anybody on Halaven can give me some feed back on their experience I am having very low energy and legs feel like jelly I have only had two treatments so far I go for blood work on Friday to see if white cells are good. I have breast cancer with mets to stomach and lymph nodes in between lungs I have been on a roller coaster ride since 2014

I have been on halaven since January. I feel fatigue and initially had nasty side effects including nausea. I now receive steroid and anti nausea drug with each treatment. This has really helped and I try to always drink lots of water after treatment. My bloodworm is conducted prior to each treatment and so far my counts have been good. I do get tightness in my legs and they feel swollen. I also have neuropathy and taken neurotic for that and vitamin b6 (it may be b2)

I hope that your side effects improve and that your blood work comes back good later this week.

Take care.

I see a typo. I taken neurotin, not neurotic, 😋 for the neuropathy.
