R-chop side effect?

Hi, my partner has just had his 5th r-chop treatment. Since the third one he has experienced what he describes as a drowning sensation in his nose and head. Is this a side effect?

thanks

  • Hello there and thanks for posting

    I am sorry to hear about your partner undergoing treatment and the sensations he is experiencing.

    There are many possible side effects with R CHOP as listed here. As you will see more common ones include things such as swelling and headaches that may be linked to the way your partner has been feeling.

    It is best at times like this to let the chemotherapy nurses know about any symptoms so they can assess him and recommend things to help.

    I hope he is feeling better soon

    Best to you both

    Naomi
