As I understand it, everyone is different. I felt a little nausea right after ther infusion, and I had an itchy rash on my belly. The DR put me on a burst of Prednisone to ward off an allergic reaction (there's another 5 lbs) but was fine other than that. My hip and foot pain both improved but I was told not to expect much improvement before 6 months passed.
