I had the CAR T procedure 6 months ago and it worked well for the MM. However, I’m still fatigued, have daily headaches, muscle aches/strain, and food doesn’t taste quite right. Has anyone else had these issues post CAR T? Thanks! Sue

I have what is considered high risk myeloma. I didn’t have enough stem cells from the first harvesting attempt of four days so was sent home for two weeks of “rest”.
No it's not just you!! Paul you will do fine with transplant. I refused growth factors like Zarxia and Neupogen after transplant. I got so sick from them at harvesting.
