Maintenance Therapy After Stem Cell Transplant

I am in remission after stem cell transplant but I was prescribed Revlimid as maintenance therapy. I have to take it until relapse. What is your experience with this medication.

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.

Revlimid Itching

My husband started revlimid this week for maintenance. He had stem cell transplant in January 2020 and has been doing well. He is having itching mostly on his scalp. Has anyone else had this and how long did it last? Thank you.

Diarrhea And Rash

Taking revlamid for almost a year with no problem and suddenly I developed a rash and now have diarrhea. Anyone have these problems? Thanks

Has Anyone Had To Be Taken Off Revlimid Because Of A Blood Clot? If So, After Being On Blood Thinners, Did They Put You Back On Rev?

Revlimid

Just was diagnosed on Wednesday and they are going to start Velcade, Revlimid and Decadron next week. I was reading that you must take a blood thinner with the Revlimid. Oncologist hematologist recommended a baby aspirin. Is this what everyone else is taking with Revlimid to prevent blood clots. Or are you taking something stronger? The risk of blood clots makes me nervous.

Revlimid

I’ve been on Revlimid for approximately 4 years with very good results thus far. I was diagnosed with MM 5 years ago and have NOT had a stem cell transplant. I’m just curious if other have also been on Revlimid without a transplant? If so, how long has it been. For those who were on Revlimid, and eventually needed a transplant, how long was the Revlimid effective? It’s my understanding at some point the drug will lose it’s effectiveness, and I will need to explore other available options… read more

Has Anyone Experienced A Rash While On Velcade, Revlimid And Dex?

I am just finishing my 4th VRD cycle before testing for stem cell transplant. On Saturday I noticed a rash on my back and chest. I have no fever and otherwise feel fine. I have contacted my doctor. Has anyone experienced a rash and how did you treat it? I only have two Revlimid pills left to take and I am finished with this cycle.

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?
