Carfilzomib side effect of swollen/bloated arm (Lymphedema)
Dear Fellow Travelers, This is my first time using this platform. I had 4 mos of Velcade, Darzalex (Faspro) and Methylprednisolone last fall followed by a stem cell transplant in March. For the first time on Friday I started Carfilzomib 54mg,m2 (along with Faspro and the Methylpredisone) which is the drug that has been prescribed for my monthly maintenance treatment. I am a breast cancer survivor. In 2008 I had 27 lymph nodes removed from my right arm. I had the Carfilzomib infusion in my left side but my right arm the very next day was swollen and bloated & has now developed lymphemena. Has anyone else had this happen while on Carf?
