    Hello everyone. Has anyone heard of side effects like nausea and dizziness going on for over 8 weeks after 4 cycles of velcade and dex? All my tests are normal.

    I was diagnosed in Jan after endocarditis and a valve replacement. I would be very grateful for any advice.

    Hi Nick, I had velcade/dex for 8 months – weekly dose/jab. Wasn’t aware this combo caused nausea and I only felt a little dizzy which I attributed to low blood pressure at times. Most common effects from this combo is fatigue – which I had – and neuropathy. Sorry can’t be any help – why not ring Ellen on the helpline in the morning they are really knowledgeable/experienced.

    Thanks Rebecca. I think I may be suffering from a virus, possibly sinusitis. It is a bit worrying as my doctors can’t find anything at all. All my tests are normal.
