Side Effects

Side effects are unexpected physical or emotional changes you might experience either from your blood cancer itself or from the treatments you receive. These changes are common and can stem from conditions like leukemia, lymphoma, or multiple myeloma impacting your body, or from therapies such as chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or stem cell transplants. They can affect your energy levels, daily activities, and overall comfort, with common examples including feeling very tired (fatigue) or having low red blood cells (anemia). In this topic, we provide clear information to help you understand, identify, and effectively manage these side effects, aiming to support your well-being throughout your treatment journey.
