After 3rd and last cycle I experienced loss of balance. Following a neuro investigation 2 years after the administration of the drug I was found to have damage of the balance centre in the brain linked to this drug. I have seen the results of a small study showing womenn over 60 treated with this drug for breast cancer are more likely to be affected by damage to the balance centre.

I had Emend so I did not get nausea. Neulasta brought my WBC count to normal. I did have anemia through the 4 cycles I was given ( along with Cytoxan) 3 months after treatment ended I developed congestive heart failure luckily a mild case but still it was CHF. I am now on daily meds for CHF

I had no problems with this at all. They normally follow it the next day with a Neulasta shot, and THAT made me sick until I learned that if you take an antihistamine like Claratin one hour before the shot, you won't get sick. Ask your doctor about this. It really works.
