Re: anyone taking premeds with TDM1?

I never did. But I sometimes took an ibuprofen that night. Tylenol would be more recommended but I don't do tylenol - my liver works hard enough already!

No premeds needed for Lorraine. 2 yrs and counting . No tylenol as it raised liver counts , and her liver is where the cancer was concentrated .
