Coping with Pomalyst: Flu & Brain Fog?
AI-generated title
HI Everyone! Anyone on the treatment course of POM/DARA/DEX. I am on round 1 day 20. The side effects I believe are the POM. It makes me feel like I have the flu and a lot of confusion and cloudiness and weakness. I was on Revlimid for induction and after SCT and had no real issues other than being tired sometimes. Anyone else have issues with POM?

Managing Darzalex Sinus and Injection Site Pain?
AI-generated title
I have been on Darzalex fastpro injections and Pomalyst pills since May. Soon after starting both I developed Dry Sinuses with a crustation in the sinus cavity per a scope down my nasal passage. Current treatments from ENT not working so wondering if this is a side effect of the above meds and if so has anyone else had it and found a solutions. Also my stomach after so many shots is developing scar tissue and getting more painful. Has anyone else dealt with that and have any remedies? (castor oil packs?? stomach massage??) Thanks for any input.

Navigating Medicare Part D for Revlimid Coverage?
AI-generated title
Hello all. Does Medicare Part D usually cover Revlimid? Should we be looking for a specific Part D plan? Right now we have very good commercial insurance that fully covers it, but we will be going on Medicare with a gap plan starting in July 2024. Thank you for any suggestions you may have. We're new to Medicare.
