I don't have specific user testimonials or individual experiences regarding the combination of Daratumumab (often referred to as Darzalex) and Carfilzomib (Kyprolis) for myeloma treatment. However, I can provide information on the common side effects associated with each medication when used in myeloma treatment:

**Daratumumab (Darzalex):**
- Common side effects include:
- Infusion reactions (such as difficulty breathing, dizziness)
- Fatigue
- Nausea
- Fever
- Cough
- Back pain
- Low blood cell counts

**Carfilzomib (Kyprolis):**
- Common side effects include:
- Fatigue
- Anemia
- Nausea
- Fever
- Diarrhea
- Shortness of breath
- Swelling in the extremities

When these drugs are used in combination, the side effects might overlap or intensify, and additional monitoring by healthcare providers may be necessary to manage them. Always consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice and management of any treatment-related side effects.
