My Mprotien Is Undetectable, So I Guess I'm In Remission; However My Lower Back And Ribs Still Hurt Most Days.
Does anyone else have pain while in remission? I am always tired; I still take Revlimid. Any advice is appreciated
Thanks for your reply. I go to the gym 5 days a week, I do think staying active helps. I had my SCT in Aug 2022. Good luck with your ASCT
Stacy,
I was told I was in remission before I started my 4th cycle of VDDR. WAS feeling great. Playing racquetball 2-3x/week. Mentally flying high. Three weeks later, developed sore, achey muscles in legs as well as weakness in left leg. Now if I'm on my feet for more than 30 minutes I feel exhausted. It seems this muscle soreness and fatigue is pretty common with MM. One of the most striking features to me is how unpredictable each day is. I have found that the muscle soreness is less noticeable if I stay active. It seems almost any activity helps as a distraction. Just have to remember to slow down and rest when necessary. I'm scheduled for ASCT in 3 weeks and hoping for complete re-set after that even though I know that might not be possible. I take strength in knowing that many people before me have experienced the same thing and have been able to adapt, even though though their lives may have changed. Stay strong.
I Have Kappa Light Chain. After My SCT My Mspike Is Undetectable; However My Protein Electrophoreses Serum Is Abnormal
Chemo Between Harvesting And SCT?
Does Anyone Have Pain In The Ribs Going Around To The Back? If So What Do You Do For It? I Get This When I Get Tired. Myeloma Related?
