Starting Dara, Dex, & Revlimid: Experiences?
AI-generated title
Three years ago I was diagnosed with mgus and the oncologist wanted to start me on drugs right away, I was hesitant to say the least since my wife dies a few years before from Pancreatic cancer and I saw first hand what the drugs can do to you. So I decided to get a second opinion from a specialist over in Portland Oregon. Best decision I ever made, it became obvious that he miss read the test results from the scans. Three years later I now have Active Myeloma based on Light chain increases which are now 129.85 instead of 1.65 and the Immunoglobulin G is low at 440 and the A i a little high 478. The free kappa light chains is 441.5 and the lambda is 3.4. Now they want to start treatment after I have another Pet scam. They are recommending I start with daratumumab and dexamethasone and if I do well than add lenalidomide. Has anyone had this type of experience with these drugs?
