For Anemia Due to Chronic Kidney Disease "Helped to improve hemoglobin (Hgb) and hematocrit (Hct) and minimal red blood cells (RBCs). Feel positive results thus far. Side effects were bone pain for a few days after injection. Worst side effect was severe runny nose starting about 3 days post-injection, peaking about 2 weeks post-injection, and basically over at time for next injection."

For Anemia Due to Chronic Kidney Disease "Couldn't breathe for months upon the least exertion. Extreme fatigue. Once the doctors figured out I was anemic due to chronic renal disease and started me on Aranesp, I have felt much, much better. The only drawback for me was a headache for a couple of days."
