For Anemia Due to Chronic Kidney Disease "This drug is being given to my husband during dialysis, as he currently has acute kidney injury (AKI) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) due to multiple myeloma. Additionally, he is undergoing chemotherapy. He is constantly feeling tired now, whereas he was not as fatigued when he was on Epo. He was switched to this drug only a few weeks ago, and since then, his hemoglobin levels have been decreasing. A significant drop occurred a few days ago. Our main concern is that his nephrologists and the dialysis center perceive themselves as the most important entity in his care, without sharing information with other doctors he sees. None of his other 14 providers were aware that he was taking this medication, which is clearly contraindicated with chemotherapy. I will switch him back to epo as soon as I can convince the doctor that he should not be taking this medication."

For Anemia Due to Chronic Kidney Disease "I was on Procrit for the six months prior to dialysis. My hemoglobin rate had dropped below 9. The Procit would usually bring the level to about 10. When dialysis was begun I was changed to Mircera. Since the time, my hemoglobin rate has never once climbed above 8 and I am always weak and tired."

For Anemia Due to Chronic Kidney Disease "I have been on this drug for a year. Use to take EPO for the previous 20 years. Never had a single blood transfusion until I started Mircera about a year ago. Since I started Mircera I have had 7 blood transfusions and am scheduled for another unit tomorrow. My hemoglobin has never reached an 8 while using Mircera. My Medical Care is insisting I use this "cheaper" than epo drug. You know since money in investor pockets matters more than any patients quality of life. I may have to get an attorney to get my medical care to pull there head in. For those that don't know and are having issues on mircera other dialysis doesn't give Mircera. Mircera is worse"
