Has Anyone Had Pain Worsen During Chemo?
I did not have pain prior to chemo. I am now having pain in my sides and back. It seems more muscular than bone. Like when I twist, turn, or bend. It also feels like my muscles in shoulders are frogging up. I’m staying hydrated. Anyone?
Curcumin (Swanson Theracurmin)
Any thoughts on taking curcumin (Swanson Theracurmin). I just started taking it 100mg once a day. I am definitely feeling the anti-inflammatory effect, joint and back pain relief.

With MM eating away at the calcium in our bones, we can’t forget it’s taking it out of our muscles too. If I’m getting enough calcium, I don’t have the cramping, ever. If I… read more

What Do Folks Think About Having A Patient Advocate For Visits, Procedures? Especially When One Is First Diagnosed.
After my Oncologist visit and all the changes we made about issues I have pointed out for years, I got to thinking having a patient advocate, one who has MM for visits would be a good thing. Docs, NP's, assistants tend to be focused on the medical side. Explaining other issues: side effects, experience with procedures, alternatives, etc is not their bailiwick.

How Does Caffeine Affect You?
How does caffeine affect you? Since I’ve been home from the hospital, I’ve started drinking regular coffee. Lately, I’ve noticed my heart rate is regularly between 100-120 with a resting heart rate of 85-95. I’m wondering if I need to switch to decaf.
I cant tolerate regular coffee since SCT. I found a super clean tested decaf that tastes great made by Purity Coffee. I order it online. They are willing to provide lab proof their coffees are free… read more

Velcade, Dex & Liver Damage
My husband is on Velcade and Dexamethasone and up until now has had very few difficulties. However, in recent CMP and Gamma GT tests, the AST and ALT have been high, as was the Gamma GT number. He's being referred to a Hepatologist, but I am wondering if his MM protocol could be causing this. Been a year and a half on this protocol without any problem. Anyone else had any liver problems?
