Kula, HI

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

The diarrhea can probably be controlled. Imodium works for me, but there are stronger prescription meds if it is really bad. Rash can be a serious side of Revlimid and should be reported to your doctor. He may want to reduce the dosage or stop it for awhile.

Colestipol is 1gm each.

Keep trying to get the grey cells to work. Crossword puzzles, word find games, crafts, crocheting, knitting, etc.
While I was on Revlimid my brain did the same thing.
Knitting and playing Words with Friends Crossword games Really helped.

Yes I am on revelimid and I do get diarrhea and sometimes constipation
And no appetite, I was on 15mg and switched me to 10mg, my white cells and red cells, my hemoglobin and platelets were getting to low. Now he is starting me on 10mg revelimid 14 days on and 14 days off. He has canceled my last two treatments because of
The low blood cells, I go in Thursday hopping I can start again. I will pray for you, I know that revelimid
Can do a number on you
But I will stick to it and do what they tell me.
