Bladder irritation after cyclophosphamide.

I was diagnosed with GPA vasculitis in 2016 and given two doses of cyclophosphamide.I was given Mesna tablets at the same time to protect the bladder as this was a known side effect of the treatment.

First cyclophosphamide pulse

On the menu today was ondansetron 8mg, methyl prednisilone 500mg, cyclophosphamide 1g and Mesna 600mg. Was in for a total of 5 hours. Feeling pretty weak and washed out now. Have a low grade temperature and ache all over.

Stopping Thalidomide treatment; starting Cyclophosphamide (in addition to masses of other stuff)

Assuming my blood tests are ok I'm going to start Cyclophosphamide, in pill form, with Mesna prescribed as well to protect my bladder. This had always been ruled out for me before.
