I had no reaction at all. My oncologist had me taking Claritin from day 1 and a year into my journey haven’t missed a day. I believe it truly helps.

I had my chemo on a Friday, so my Neulasta was done through the On-Pro auto injector. I had it with all 6 of my chemo sessions, and it would auto-inject the med into my arm, on Saturday. No issues!

What was your experience with the Neulasta shot?

Unfortunately, the search results provided don't contain specific information about Neulasta shots or member experiences with them. Neulasta is commonly used during chemotherapy to help prevent infections by boosting white blood cell counts, but the available information focuses on other aspects of breast cancer treatment.

The results do mention various side effects from treatments like chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and radiation therapy, including fatigue, nausea, skin reactions, and low white blood cell counts. However, there aren't any direct experiences shared about Neulasta specifically.

For accurate information about what to expect with Neulasta, including common side effects like bone pain, it would be best to discuss this with your oncology team. They can provide guidance based on your specific treatment plan and help you manage any side effects you might experience.
