@colleenyoung Hi
Thanks for checking in. I had my first infusion of Elahere 11/24/25. Unfortunately I have had 2 wks of severe GI side effects including nausea, diarrhea and abdominal spasms. I saw my oncologist on 12/1 and he said I am very sensitive and would lower the dose 10% for my next infusion. I have also been exhausted and had trouble motivating myself to get off the couch to get any thing accomplished. I was very grateful my daughter hosted Thanksgiving this year!
My next scan is 1/6 so hopefully I will see improvement. I don’t have a lot of cancer in my system right now, but I want to stay ahead of it. My ovarian CA was diagnosed at stage 2b in 11/23 after finding it by chance when I had an emergency appendectomy.
I had no trouble taking the eyedrops nor did I have any blurriness. I have neuropathy in my feet already from two rounds of Carbo and Taxol so I just bought cooling socks for the remainder of my infusions.
Fingers crossed for a great response. 🙏🏽🤞
