Hi. I am in recent remission from both chl and NHL, a complex lymphoma case. Reactions from chemotherapy differ, and, thankfully most patients don't experience all possible symptoms as you probably already know. I probably felt flushed at some point, during my 12 combined cycles of chemotherapy from March 2019 to August 2020.
I use both Google searches and of course consulting with my oncologist.
Reactions seem quite transitory; sometimes a predictable pattern of reactions will become apparent over the course of chemotherapy cycles. This has been my own personal experience. My fear of nausea never became problematic, but during the 2019 ABVD first cycle treatment protocol, I experienced other chemotherapy reactions unanticipated.

This is a valuable forum for patients going through medical issues, like cancer.

Feel free to reach out to me if you feel comfortable doing so. I have found that sharing these life changing experiences has helped in the healing process.

And, I am back riding motorbikes again after 25 years, and now 65 years old. Never thought that was possible, especially during my 8 days inpatient at the Mayo clinic!
Dreams do come true, and they most certainly will, for you.

@melbishop You May be the first “flush twin” I have had. All my life I have gotten what I call my “Royal Flush” after receiving steroids. Before four years on the weekly steroid Dexamethazone that is part of most if not all Myeloma treatments, I have always had that reaction from joint steroid injections in my knees and spine. Besides the rosy cheeks, there was always very warm feeling that would occasionally wake me as it started overnight.
You ask what can you do? Wait a day or two and it will be gone. And perhaps smile and enjoy your beautiful glow.
Seriously, I am so glad to hear that your first day of treatment went well. I hope you will keep us posted on how this goes for you.
Peace, Nancy

@melbishop One more thing I might mention. For two to three days after taking the “Dex”, I noticed a decrease in my chronic pain issues and a significant increase in energy, sometimes a little difficulty sleeping for a night or two. There was never a “crash” as they wore off, just a gradual return to my normal level at that particular point in time. Again I must remind you that we are all different.
Best wishes, Nancy
