I want to start a discussion about revlimid. The uber expensive maintenance drug. I have been on 10 mg since 01/01/2023 and will be on it until 12/31/2024. The symptoms have dominated my day to day since 01/01/2024. When I hit a year in everything was amplified. The fatigue, nausea, neuropathy, balance, depression, severe muscled cramps then the newest severe GI symptoms that make me afraid to be too far from a bathroom. I do have some good days but when my bad days come they are bad. I am still working and really hope that come January next year I will drop some of the symptoms; muscle cramps, GI symptoms, malaise. I do a lot of pouting by myself and know the revlimid is working great to keep my labs in a great place. But, geeze I am tired of feeling poopy most of the time. My pharmacist in Hematologist's office has been great and offered to reduce the dose. I do not want to because again my lab number are beautiful. A nurse at the infusion clinic said people she has worked with do experience symptoms stopping after 2-3 months. Has anyone gotten to the other side and can report on this. I am a rational person and an RN myself (24 yrs) so I know the value of treatment. My other side is a whiny baby and want to feel an equilibrium for a better quality of life. Maybe work another 2-3 years and retire while in remission. I could go on longer about how stifled I feel but I would like anyone to tell me their revlimid journey. Thanks

I loom knit. These two cats are for the nurses and the bunny for child oncology.

I am here six years undetectable from Multiple Myeloma. I contribute more than 50% of My Success in my myeloma Journey in meeting Jenny through another organizations a myeloma symposium. One of Healthtrees representative invited me to a Crowd ? meeting there I got so much information from providers of healthcare. There was information on treatment team expertise, I met or got connected with Sparkcures and their help with finding the right Hospital prepaired me to know exactly what to request of my oncologist and submit before making that Journey across a couple of states for the appointment a wonderful experience. My Specialist was impressed that I got there and all the records that he needed were there prior to my visit. When it came time for my stem cell transplant I had had enough knowledge from having the opportunity to meet other transplant patience to know how to prepare for the hospital visit. And what things I could take to give myself a better mindset. Everyone was so encouraging and inspiring that I've committed to coaching. Partiacpating in Twin program allows my condition to help someone. And if know I am not alone. I even got the courage to rock my bald head and use it as an opportunity to tell everybody about the Wonders of Healthtree organization. In case they knew somebody that may have myeloma precursors or MGUS, Smoldering M or Multiple Myeloma. I call it my M&M's and thanks to Healthtree we are eating them up. Its all in your attitude I believe... lets inspire someone else. Turning an poetical into a opportunity is everything. You can win! Thanks JA .

I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in the spring of 2016 and then was given 20mg Revlimid (daily) and valcaid (weekly) until my light chains dropped from 1660 to 375. In December 2016 I received a stem-cell transplant, which did not fully cure my myeloma. For approximately three (3) years I continued with 15mg Revlimid (daily) and then stopped taking it. For about two years (taking labs every six weeks), my light chains vacillated between 130 and 150. Now here I stand with no ill effects but not fully cured.

Hi all, It’s almost time for my husband’s SCT, next week and I have a couple of questions, (Sorry if these have been asked before, could not find an easy way to search past posts) Skin care What did you used for dry skin? I’m afraid his current products (lotion, oil) might be too harsh, especially after chemo. Aqua guard sheets what size did you get to keep dry the picc line? Is bigger better? Thanks, Margarita
