Has Anyone Had Pain Worsen During Chemo?

A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question 💭
Oklahoma City, OK

I did not have pain prior to chemo. I am now having pain in my sides and back. It seems more muscular than bone. Like when I twist, turn, or bend. It also feels like my muscles in shoulders are frogging up. I’m staying hydrated. Anyone?

The meds are poison. They do result in all sorts of pain and problems. If you’re taking Xgeva or Zometa expect bone pain. If you take Velcade expect neuropathy, muscle damage and weakness and the same… read more

Any thoughts on taking curcumin (Swanson Theracurmin). I just started taking it 100mg once a day. I am definitely feeling the anti-inflammatory effect, joint and back pain relief.

A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question 💭
Warrenton, VA

I’m having some issues opening jars and water bottles sometimes, the good thing I can still grip a glass to drink but I’m wondering if there’s exercises to strengthen or is it something else?

What Do Folks Think About Having A Patient Advocate For Visits, Procedures? Especially When One Is First Diagnosed.

A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question 💭
Salt Lake City, UT

After my Oncologist visit and all the changes we made about issues I have pointed out for years, I got to thinking having a patient advocate, one who has MM for visits would be a good thing. Docs, NP's, assistants tend to be focused on the medical side. Explaining other issues: side effects, experience with procedures, alternatives, etc is not their bailiwick.
