First of all I want to thank you all for the very quick responses which have been such a help.
I spoke to the nurse today who instructed me on how to take cellcept and she said that nowhere does it indicate to take the drug without food. OBVIOUSLY she is covering her back and just sticking to her guns as she also said for me to try taking the drug on an empty stomach and see what happens.
I already tried this before I spoke to her on the strength of your advise. It is a lot more tolerable as I am not being sick, but I am still just having liquidised soup and plenty fluids. My stomach feels very full and uncomfortable.
I am determined to stick with the cellcept as my SLE is in the worst flare it has ever been and I need to get the medication into my system. I am going to try various combinations of times and hope it works.
Once again, thankyou for the responses and any advise on how to ease the stomach upsets while I get used to the cellcept would be very gratefully received.
