What are the side effects of CAR-T cell therapy?

[@robthejones]

Almost 12 months after treatment and while I had both of the main side effects, they were well managed in hospital and fully recovered. I did lose my hair(again) due to the “mild” chemotherapy prior to therapy. Also I am still on blood products infused monthly. FATIGUE has been hard to cope with but after 7 months I noticed a large reduction and am finally feeling a lot more normal. I recommend getting help in managing fatigue. Thank you to all the clinicians and great minds that helped me survive my cancer. Car T saved me when there was nothing left.

Good luck to you all. I'm highly allergic to Dex it gave me steroid psychotics. Has anyone gone thru the Car-T process with my allergies.
