Shingles Without a Rash From Treatment?
AI-generated title
Hello Everyone, I have completed 2 cycles of quad therapy with Dexa, Revlimid, Velcade and Dara. I had issues with extreme bloating. Then the left side of abdomen, back and side became numb. I’m on antiviral medicine. My hematologist/oncologist didn’t have an answer so I saw a neurologist who said I was getting shingles but there was no rash. Apparently the anti viral was keeping it at bay and looks like internal shingles and they treated me increasing the anti viral. It’s been over 2 weeks and still numb with sensitive skin. I am 54 and only had 2 cycles 21 days and this occurred. Now it’s holding up my treatment. Has any else gotten this from treatment for multiple myeloma? Does anyone have insights referencing shingles during treatment? Thank to very much.
