I'm convinced Revlimid/lenalidomide is the root cause of the 24/7 hissing in my ears. Extremely annoying, the few times it is less noticeable, is truly a great feeling. Unfortunately, it doesn't stay all that long.

Are you experiencing ringing or buzzing in your ears (tinnitus)?

While the search results don't specifically address tinnitus in relation to myeloma, it's worth noting that peripheral neuropathy - a common complication affecting about 75% of people with myeloma - can cause various nerve-related symptoms throughout the body.

Tinnitus could potentially be related to nerve damage, treatment side effects, or other factors. Since you're dealing with myeloma, it's important to discuss this symptom with your healthcare provider. They can help determine if it's related to your condition, treatment, or something else entirely, and recommend appropriate management strategies.

Have you noticed if the tinnitus started after beginning any particular treatment, or has it been ongoing?

Because of these changes, the doctors want to do another test called a bronchoscopy, where they use a small camera to look inside the airways and take samples to understand it better. Hearing all this was not easy for me. It made me emotional because it feels like one thing after another. But at the same time, I am thankful that I am already under medical care and the doctors are taking steps to find out exactly what
