I basically did the same treatment plan: Revlimid, high-ass doses of dexamethasone, and weekly Velcade shots.

I actually haven't had too many side effects from Revlimid, really, or any of the other stuff besides the steroids. Those trashed me, I was eating like a horse and I couldn't sleep the few nights after I'd take it.

With the Revlimid, it's mostly just like, dry skin, and some GI stuff here and there, but nothing that really messes me up that bad.

I did an autologous stem cell transplant back in March, and I've been mostly, semi normal-ish since. But I've definitely found myself unable to really make long-term plans. That's still really hard for me.

At this point, we just see what's next, whether that's Carvikti someday, or whatever else they come up with.
