What are the 'rituximab horror stories' that patients have experienced?

There are reports where patients taking Trulicity had extremely disrupted digestive systems. They suffered from constant nausea and vomiting, which made it difficult for them to go about their daily lives. It was like their bodies were constantly in a state of upheaval. This was part of their 'trulicity horror stories' as it affected their quality of life significantly. They couldn't eat properly or engage in normal activities without feeling sick. Some had to stop taking the medication altogether because of these unbearable side effects.

Some patients have had problems with asymmetry. For example, one eye might look significantly different from the other after the blepharoplasty. Maybe one eyelid was over - corrected and the other under - corrected. This can be a huge disappointment as the goal of the surgery is often to enhance the overall appearance of the eyes, and asymmetry defeats that purpose.

Some patients have reported severe nausea as part of their 'duloxetine horror stories'. It can be so intense that it affects their daily life, making it difficult to eat or function normally. Also, there are cases where people had extreme mood swings, feeling very agitated or depressed even more than before starting the drug.

Some patients might have had allergic reactions to Farxiga. For example, they could break out in rashes all over their body which is really scary as it makes them uncomfortable and worried about their health.

Well, there are stories of people having trouble with their metabolism on Latuda. They gained a significant amount of weight in a short time, which made them feel bad about their appearance and also had an impact on their physical health. Also, some had problems with their sleep cycle. Instead of getting better sleep, they had disrupted sleep patterns and would often wake up in the middle of the night, feeling restless.

Another horror story involves fractures. Despite the drug being meant to help with bone health, some patients on Prolia had an increased risk of fractures. They felt betrayed as they expected the drug to prevent fractures but instead it seemed to contribute to this problem in some cases.

One horror story could be long waiting times. Patients have to wait for hours, sometimes even days, just to get a basic check - up. It's really frustrating for those in pain or with serious conditions.

A patient I know started rituximab treatment and soon after developed a very high fever that wouldn't go down for days. It was extremely worrying as the medical team had to constantly monitor and try different medications to bring the fever under control.

One horror story could be a woman who had fibroids and it led to extremely heavy menstrual bleeding. She was constantly changing pads and it affected her daily life so much that she couldn't leave the house for long. It was embarrassing and physically exhausting.

There are cases where the vision correction wasn't accurate. People thought they would have perfect vision but ended up with blurry vision or seeing halos around lights at night. This can seriously affect their daily life, like driving at night becomes dangerous. Also, in some rare instances, the corneal flap created during LASIK didn't heal properly, leading to pain and potential vision loss.
