I was part of a research study at Northwestern Medical Center. It involved a stem cell transplant then heavy doses of Steroids and Chemo. I did this twice, once in 2019 and again in 2020 along with a 3 week hospital stay to watch my white blood cells return to normal. The first time was pretty rough the second week. I had chest cramps, that I had had since I was 16, instead of once lasting a few minutes I was having them every 5-10 min for 2 days. Many test were run, I told them I had already had all these test before and no cause was ever found, nor was any found this time. I had heartburn 24 hours a day for the entire week. I also had AFIB which I had never had and have not had since. The second time in 2020 I had no issues at all.
