Is Avastin causing pain in arms?

Posted by charlotte12 @charlotte12, Dec 15, 2024

I had my 2nd infusion of Bevacizumab or Avastin. I noticed changes in my left arm. The arm started hurting when trying to lift above 90 degrees. The right upper arm is also sending out pain in intervals. I did not cause any injury to both arms. I'm not lifting or moving any items over 2 or 3 pounds. Did anyone on Avastin experience similiar issues. I had both
infusions on my left arm. Maybe I should use the right arm for the next infusion?

In reply to @lindamartin "Avastin caused a massive bloody nose resulting in two blood transfusions. Lesser bloody noses followed. Also..." + (show)

@lindamartin: I experienced nose and gum bleeding for a long time, none currently, i have to be careful brushing teeth to not start bleeding, I did not need blood transfusions, my
blood pressure also went up, one time I went to the ER for it, I am taking 2 blood pressure medications for over 8 months now, did you get a replacement for Avastin and which one is it?
