Managing DVRd Induction & Weekend Trips?
AI-generated title
Hi. I hope you’re all having a pleasant day. My boyfriend is starting induction treatment next week with the quad of Dara-Velcade-Rev.-Dex. I think I’ve seen it like DVRd. Do any of you have any experience with this? Are the next couple months ones where he’ll likely need to stay closer to home? He’s been toying with booking some weekend trips. What’s your experience? Thanks in advance for any feedback or suggestions that you might have.

Understanding Treatment Outcomes: Helpful Resource

Measuring Treatment Response for Myeloma: https://www.lls.org/myeloma/treatment/treatment-outcomes With the current advances in treatment and supportive care, survival rates for myeloma patients have improved significantly in the last decades. It is not unusual for myeloma patients to live for 10 years or longer after diagnosis. Outcomes are influenced by a series of patient-specific factors, including disease stage, chromosome abnormalities, age, and the presence of other medical problems. Patients should discuss their own potential outcomes with their doctors.
