TOBI side effects?

After 3 weeks of TOBI, I start to feel fatigued, even as my lung function and exercise tolerance improves. Also notice my hair starts to shed (i have very thick hair, so this is not horrid, just a little creepy). Anyone out there have either of these symptoms? I was slightly anemic before starting TOBI and now waiting for results of new cbc.
thanks!

I know that whenever I am doing IV antibiotics, my hair sheds like crazy!My RBC's also drift down on IV's... NOt with TOBI though...I am on my rotation now and have dull chest pain with it and am definitely coughing up more (I guess that is good). My lungs feel a bit irritated too...Jenn <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Tina, I would have your husband contact his doctor about his ear problems. Tobi can cause issues with hearing and I believe the package insert mentions it.

With DS, I notice that his nose is stuffy, which leads to more "digging for gold". DH, who usually is the one who hangs out with DS during his tobi treatments says that his nose and throat tend to burn. DS sometimes also gets a little bit of a froggy sounding voice when he first starts on it.
