Chop R Side Effects

A MyLymphomaTeam Member asked a question 💭
Canada, KY

I am currently undergoing radiation to the skull and spine and will start CHOP R early Sept. I had an OK management with Bendamustine and able to work from home but how have many of you managed with CHOP R?

THANKS so much

The key with r-chop is to get neulasta with every cycle to avoid neutropenia - https://news.cancerconnect.com/non-hodgkins-lym... C

Ramona2,
Hi! I had 6 treatments of RCHOP. One treatment every three weeks. It was rough the first week. However, some people do just fine. I think it depends on the person. I was nauseated and fatigued. Make sure you drink lots of fluids and try to rest when you can. I made sure I ate protein too. I took my antinausea medication exactly on time to stay ahead of the nausea. I lost my hair but it starts growing back as soon as you stop your treatments. If you have any further questions please feel free to ask me. I hope you are feeling well with your radiation therapy.
