Thoughts on Stopping Ninlaro Maintenance?

I had a stem cell treatment 8 years ago. I am on maintenance therapy with Ninlaro 4mg, once a week for 3/4 weeks. I wonder if I should stop treatment with this protease inhibitor. Any thoughts?

Developing Neuropathy Years Later?
AI-generated title
Hello, I was diagnosed in 2017, had SCT 2018. I am not on any maintenance since 2018 and in remission. This past year, I have been getting neuropathy in both of my feet and hands. (tingling and achy) Is it possible to get neuropathy now after nine years due to treatment? I have diabetes but my A1C 5.3 and on no meds. I do not have blurred vision or headaches that usually coincides with diabetes. I also had my nerves tested in feet and hands and I do not have any damage. Thank you in advance.

Understanding a Missing M Spike Result?
AI-generated title
Has anyone had the experience that when you get your blood work done, the M Spike result does not show? I was told that meant the M spike was at zero, but I find that a bit hard to believe that they wouldn’t at least say zero or no result.

Skin Changes and Sensations During Relapse?
AI-generated title
I am multiple myeloma patient Iga and Lambda light chains in the process of relapse. I have recently started having some skin changes which are not bug bites. These are popping up on different parts of my body and most of them are red and itchy. I also have strange sensations on my skin like something is moving on it but no apparent insects or bugs are present even under magnifying glass. I am wondering if all of these are due to my myeloma being active again, and if anybody else experienced this?
