What are the risks and recovery expectations for R-CHOP?

Common side effects include nausea, fatigue, hair loss, increased infection risk due to low white blood cell counts, and potential heart or nerve damage. Recovery is typically managed on an outpatient basis, with each cycle followed by a rest period to allow blood counts to recover. Most patients resume normal activities between cycles, but full recovery extends several weeks after the final cycle, with ongoing monitoring for late effects.
