I just finished six infusions in October. I was very fortunate and did not need the nausea medications or mouthwash prescription. I had no problems with fingers and toes. The most notable side effects were fatigue for nine or 10 days between cycles and loss of 85% of my hair. I traveled between five of the six infusions to see family, going to the beach, etc.

As mentioned above, every person is different. However, I am a firm believer that exercise and diet make a tremendous difference in all treatments. I strived to exercise every day, doing less on the more tired days. I ate lots of fruit, fruits, vegetables, whole grains, etc., adding more protein to my diet during the treatment process. I also fasted, either via a three day water fast, or a five day Prolon fasting mimicking diet for each of the infusions. There is a growing number of studies suggesting this limits side effects, and possibly improves efficacy.

Good luck getting through the treatment. I didn’t find them that bad, and wish the same for you.
