After My Chemotherapy Treatment With Velcaide I Was Placed On Revlimid+Dexamethasone; But Later Dexamethasone Was Stopped; Why?
I would like an additional drug to be added to Lenalidomide so it becomes a Combination Therapy? Kindly advise?
This is a question for your doctor. I hope you are seeing a MM Specialist if not for your continued care at least for a second opinion and treatment guidance. MM is too complicated to keep up with in the general oncologists practice.
In the case of Dex, if you were having problems with side effects, they would reduce the dose to 20mg/week. What other drugs are you being given? How long gave you been on induction? If you need help finding a Specialist, let me know and I'll send you a Directory.
