Allegra kicks Neulasta's butt!

Views: 710

I haven’t posted in a while but I wanted to share this with anyone who might be looking for relief from the pain of the Neulasta injections. My husband had headaches, chest pain and, well, just pain for about 5 days after the injections of neulasta following his bi-weekly chemo.
I ready everything I could get my hands on, searched every site and followed each link. There were a few postings on how Allegra was helping some people with their pain, the reasons were not exactly known, something to do with histamines, but we started him on it about 3 months ago and I cannot tell you what a difference it has made. It took the second treatment to really show the difference but even the first was better. He takes it twice a day everyday and I am just so thankful for the stuff. I did tell his doctor but he sort of blew it off, his chart still states that he is using pain medication for the Neulasta pain but it is incorrect.
I hope this posting will help someone.
