Non-diabetic stage 5CKD now glucose in urine?
It’s odd because it feels like it was right after the bad reaction I had from the
Aranesp
shot. Thanks!

There is fun to be had and there's always room for change
He must have discussed it with his colleagues because a couple of months later the whole unit had
Aranesp
in their machines. He was a brilliant brilliant man and a fine example to any budding doctor.

What side effects did you experience while on Epogen/procrit/Aranesp?
Hi all, I started the
Aranesp
finally which is injected every two weeks. The first dose a few weeks ago went ok. I had a headache for a day but that’s about it. I just had my second shot this past Thursday and got a migraine that woke me from my sleep within two days.

olaparin (Lynparza) and low HGB
The only two that I am aware of is reducing the olaparib dosage or using
Aranesp
(darbepoetin alfa). What approaches have you guys seen and results? Thanks Gary

Experience with Aranesp (darbepoetin alfa) to improve HGB count
When my HGB dipped below 10.0 (9.6) my dosage on Lynparza was reduced to 450mg/day My MO/Hematologist suggests that I consider
Aranesp
if my HGB count goes below 10 again. Any thoughts or experiences on the use of this drug and/or other strategies on improving HGB counts? Gary

Is Anyone using Reblozyl (luspatercept) for anemia due to MPN/ Hydroxyurea?
Hi everyone, I've been taking
Aranesp
injections for 2 years for severe anemia due to myelofibrosis/ET and also side effects of hydroxy. The
Aranesp
stopped working, and I've been taking luspatercept injections for the last 9 weeks.

Water retention
I have been on Ibrutinib for 4 months now and more recently (6weeks) on weekly injections of
Aranesp
because of low red blood count (78). I have also gained 10 pounds in a short period of time. Doctors have changed my diuretic, ruled out blood clots and ruled out heart-related problems.

Erythropoietin injections
His hgb is drifting down -his haematologist does not think it’s caused by the Ruxolitinib but due to disease progression ( white cells are drifting up and platelets drifting down) He gets very tired and sometimes a little breathless so he’s begun a four week course of

Aranesp
My oncologist gave me a shot of
Aranesp
during my last visit. My HGB had dropped to 8.6 and the RBC to 2.52. Has anyone else been given this medication? Like most drugs, there is a long list of side effect for
Aranesp
including heart issues.

Starting Aranesp
Yesterday my labs showed HCT at 28, so nephrologist wants to start
Aranesp
. I know that it will most likely give me more energy, but the black box warning is worrisome. Anyone had issues with blood clots from it?

Drop in haemoglobin
I take iron tablets and
Aranesp
injections to increase my Hb levels. I’m waiting for Addenbrookes to get back to me next week, but just wondered if this had happened to anyone else. Any comments and advice will be gratefully appreciated, Thanks Jill

Have any of you done the Aranesp Injections?
I have my first one tomorrow morning, just looking at what to expect. I had been sitting at 10.0 - 10.1 hgb and 30.4 ish hct for over a year - but today I was at 9.6hgb and 28.8 hct - so they sent my iron levels off, and if they come back good (which they should, I finished iron infusions not too long
