Hi John, I wish I could take naproxen or ibuprofen but can't because of kidney damage from MM. I can take acetaminophen and if that doesn't work, I have 'scripts for morphine and oxycodone.

Anyone Having Cramps In Their Feet ?
A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have very bad neuropathy due to Induction. Treatment like dexamethasone did really bad things to my muscles. During the day and as I awake in the morning, the underside and even the inside edge of my feet will have very bad cramps. I'll flex my feet to relieve it some. I've just started taking magnesium oxide (250mg daily). I'm also stretching them at the gym but it still has a long way to go.

Any recommendations ?

Thanks

Is Anyone Using 10mg Ritalin Daily?
A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

A year ago, I was given 10mg Ritalin to take daily, to help me during extreme fatigue times. It helped me focus at a time I needed to concentrate on my work. I only took 5 of the 30 pills. It was quite helpful but I was at a point of wanting to get off all meds possible. At that point, the list was very long.

Though I'm doing well physically, I'm finding the aftermath of treatment has really affected my ability to focus on big tasks. I'm a programmer and I do electronics design and… read more
