If I was receiving Lu 177 I would be dizzy with joy.

Joy said you're always dizzy even when you're sober......

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

Sorry. Took me a while to sober up.

A lot of my bloodwork took dramatic hits when I did LU 177. Dizziness can be a sign of very low hemoglobin. I only had one treatment with it because it was so hard on my bone marrow and therefore my blood count. It sound like you need to have a CBC done.gJohn

I’ve had 4 infusions/treatments. Got quite a low blood count. Had a lot of tiredness afterwards but no dizziness. B12 count got really low too. Had 3x B12 injections afterwards to help raise my blood count. That helped a bit.

Lutetium is a radiation treatment that reaches your entire body. It’s completely normal to feel dizzy the day efter the infusion and some time thereafter. Maybe also nausea. You will feel normal in a few days, apart from the low blood values that will take some weeks or months to normalize.

Just had my third infusion of LU-177. The first two infusions were OK. But the third was a little harder for the body. The fatigue..the loss of appetite... lethargy were much more obvious. Took some light walk and work out some perspiration. Felt a lot better. I Will be doing my blood test in three weeks' time. Will keep everyone posted.
