Thumbs down Anyone heard of this one?

Hello all! Just got back from the hospital where they did my labs........my hands and feet are peeling really badly and have had NO energy for the last couple of days....long story short -my neuro thinks I'm sufferig from an allergic reaction to my IMURAN!

WTH? So, I have to go to the hospital IMMEDIATELY for a STAT blood draw and am waiting for the results...............

Came home to a hurt animal and a rude 17 yr old.....could just SCREAM!

The only positive out of today is that I may start Cellcept again - I've kept all of my old cellcept from b/4

Hopefully you are all happy and STRONG!

Big hugs!
Erin

Red face

ERIN I hope you start feeling better soon. As for an allergic reaction, sounds possible to me, I was never allergic to anything until after I started treatment for MG and now I can hardly take anything You are in my thoughts.

Erin,
Sorry that things are happening to you. You are in my prayers. I was on Immuran first and had bad side effects from it and had to go on CellCept. I took Immuran for 4 months but could not tolerate the side effects. CellCept has been better to me with less side effects. I hope the reaction, if that is what is happening, goes away quickly for you. Take care and stay in touch. On an up note, CellCept is now generic!!!!
Big Hugs to you,
Simon
