Hi - I Am A 65 Year Old Pretty Long Term Survivor Of Multiple Myeloma. I Am Looking For Info Regarding Cost Of Revlimid
I am about to go on Medicare and was SHOCKED at the cost of the copay for Revlimid which I am starting as maintenance therapy. Even with the supplemental prescription coverage, it is obscenely expensive. Why is there no generic available? I am wondering how others deal with this? We don't qualify for the Leukemia/Lymphoma Society assistance program. Anything else out there? Thank you.
About 2 months before my grant is up for the year they send me another application, I fill it out give it to my Oncologists office they fill out their part and fax it to the pharmaceutical Co. for… read more

Does Anyone Take Dexamethasone And Revlimid As Maintence?
I’m really struggling with taking 20 mg of Dexamethasone weekly. It’s 50 degrees here and I’m sweating like I’m in the Caribbean…. Can anyone explain why we need to take all the dex in one day? I wish we could take 1 a day for 5 days…. Thanks in advance for any suggestions…. I have no idea if this will be my maintenance therapy for the rest of my life but it’s not a great maintenance plan for me…

Discontinuing Revlimid And Starting POMALYST While On Maintenance Therapy
Due to a recurring itchy body rash developing when using Revlimid, I’ll be switching over pomalidomide with velcade and dex. POMALYST is 10 times more potent than that of lenalidomide. But what I’m reading, people seem to have less side effects although it’s in the same drug class. For those who are on POMALYST, what has been your experience?
Thanks !
