Sorry to hear about the side effects but thanks for keeping us posted.

Do they have you taking anything prophylactically like Benadryl to help with the reactions? Then again, that might cause the drowsiness.

When my NP and I discussed it, she said slowing the infusion rate could help minimize headaches but then that would make it take even longer which you may not want.
