Exjade
Hi everyone
Things are going well with the treatment of the cGVHD and I am now down to moderate level. It is now time to treat the iron overload. We tried phlebotomies but that isn't going to work for me - bad veins. So it looks like I'll be taking Exjade. My main concern is damage to my vision since I have limited vision already. My ferretin level is very high so I imagine I'll be on it for a long while. I am usually in the small percentage of people who have rare side-effects. How concerned should I be?
