I was recently prescribed Procrit 20,000u/ml, 1ml Vial for anemia and have been taking it for a few weeks. Overall, I've felt a bit better, but I'm worried about the side effects. Some of the urgent side effects listed sound really scary, and I'm not sure if I should be doing anything differently. Has anyone else had any issues with this medication? I'm especially concerned about high blood pressure and blood clots, as I've heard some horror stories. If you have any advice or personal experiences to share, please let me know. I want to make sure I'm doing everything right and staying safe.
