Hello all! I was dx in 2009 with Kappa light chain IgG. SCT in 2009. Drug free for five wonderful years then relapse in 2014. Been off and on maintenance therapy since 2014. I have been doing really well with maintenance and currently on Darzalex injections every four weeks. My light chains have been in the abnormal range since February of this year. With low IgG levels for several years. My MM specialist ordered more testing done a couple weeks ago and my MM has now evolved into Light Chain Escape. Which I understand that my MM can no longer be monitored by blood tests but with BMB. Has anyone have this form of MM? How is your disease monitored? What treatment are you currently on? Side effects?

Does anyone else suffer a transient, post exertional malaise? I am 3 years post ASCT and on a 21:7, 25mg Lenalidomide, 20mg dexamethasone regime. I take the dex on a Friday morning and on a Saturday could do a 20km bicycle ride equivalent without much concern. If I cycle 20km on Sunday morning however I will collapse by the afternoon and this may continue through Monday and Tuesday. If I don't exercise on the Sunday then I am happily able to cycle 50km Tues, Wed, Thur & Fri. For the first two years of maintenance I never had this problem though I had Covid a year ago so I'm trying to figure whether it might be that or possibly development of a dexamethasone related adrenal insufficiency? If you've gone through the same I'd be very interested to learn.

I have a problem understanding my BMB report. I haven’t seen my doctor yet but am concerned with what I am reading. The final con conclusion on the pathology report read: Persistent plasma cell myeloma with 15 to 20% kappa restricted plasma cells and aberrant CD56 expression! Can someone shed some light on this?

Just started with Elrexfio (Elranatamab) yesterday. I like to use Elrexfio as I can see it as a spell used by Hermione in the Harry Potter series. Looking forward to sharing experiences as we move forward.

Hi all, has anyone else felt increased pain while taking teclistamab/tecvayli? I was told that many patients have reported pain but for how long after starting treatment? Thanks for sharing your experience!
