- Diarrhea or constipation
- Fatigue
- Swelling in the arms or legs
- Insomnia
- Muscle cramps or spasms
- Abdominal or back pain
- Nausea
- Fever
- Rash
- Cough or shortness of breath
- Dizziness
- Loss of appetite

- Respiratory or digestive tract infections One thing worth knowing is that diarrhea from Revlimid can sometimes be "late-onset," meaning it may not show up until 17–24 months after starting treatment — so don't be caught off guard if new symptoms appear later on.

Always report any side effects to your myeloma specialist. They can help find ways to manage them and improve your quality of life. Never adjust your dose or take over-the-counter remedies without checking with them first.
