I have a question.  I am stage 4 colon cancer with met to lung and aorta ureters.  After my first treatment I went into antiphalatic shock.  I now take steriods before and after my treatments.    MY QUESTION.  After every treatment, I bleed through my kidneys, I dont mean pink tinge, I mean blood and lots of it.  I will drop 2-3 grams in HgB.  Has anyone else had this problem?  I am beginning to think, I am having allergic reactions after each of my treaments but the steriods are helping to keep the signs at a minimum.   I guess my nex trip is to my nephrologist to ask if this is damaging my kidneys.  Thanks for any inof/

Hi, I looked on the www.erbitux.com website and didn't see anything about bleeding or kidneys, but there is a statement about reactions:

To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Bristol-Myers Squibb at

1-800-721-5072 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch

You may want to call Bristol-Myers.

I am on Erbitux and have the awful rash. I have not experienced any bleeding.
