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?
