I've been prescribed Procrit 10,000u/ml 2ml Mdv Vials and I'm curious to hear from others who have used it. I understand it helps with anemia by stimulating red blood cell production, which is great, but I'm a bit concerned about the side effects. I've read about everything from mild symptoms like headaches to serious issues like blood clots. Has anyone else had any of these side effects, and if so, how did you manage them? I'm also interested in hearing about any tips for administering the injections. My doctor didn't go into much detail, so any advice would be much appreciated.
