I hear it could cause heart issues and Dr says I will need to be monitored regularly with EKG to see if my base line changes. Is anyone currently taking this new drug?
Thanks,

I was on Velcade , then switched to Kyprolis, which was not as effective as Velcade. Had no side effects with Kyprolis. Am now back on Velcade Injectable, which works better,

I was on Kyprolis twice per week for 4 months pre sct.
I didn’t feel any side effects.
