I know everyone's different but what type of side effects did you experience on Cytoxan? I have read they can be bad and wondered how others felt and how extensive they were. Any suggestions would be appreciated

Cytoxan, You will lose your hair, may cause nausea/diarrhea but they have pre-medications to help with that. Peripheral Neuropathy does come with all chemo’s including Velcade. Make sure you tell your doctor of any side effects you are having. Prayers! Love, Marcia

CBD lotion works well for me and is relatively immediate results so no waiting for pain pills to kick in. Also take gabapentin for pain as well which I've had to increase as the neuropathy gets worse. Good luck just have to try different things until you find what works for you.

I take cytoxan , velcade and decadron. Just started my 3rd cycle and cytoxan is considered to have the least side effects. A light upset stomach on day one.
