Just starting my VRd treatment. Should these meds help alleviate my back pain or make it worse? I’m on hydrocodine-Acetaminiphine but doesn’t seem to help much.
My original chemo in 2016 erased what I realized, late in the course of it, was bone pain. By the end of it, I was more pain-free than I had been in years.
I don't know if this is applicable or not. Best wishes.
The dex will help some with pain
Depends on whether you have a plasmacytoma or just a spot on your spine...your doctor should be able to tell you.
Dawn,
On top of pain meds, try Curcumin which helps with inflammation and progression with MM and a calcium supplement like Solaray's Collagen Bone Complete. When I take calcium my spine feels better.

Tell your doctor. They want to know any new reactions.
