Allergy to Revilimid

Post by artistanne » 14 Feb 2014 09:32

Hi everybody.

Finally got the ok for the hospital to give me Revilimid was so happy. Three days after starting the meds my head started to swell up and was so itchy. went to hospital and they said I was allergic to Revilimid and could not take it any more. So upset hi had waited so long for approval and was no good for me. When I asked them what we could do they just shrugged their shoulders and said nothing. Any suggestion what I can do now please.
