      Treatments

      Chemotherapy Working / Worked
      I started with Valcad and Dex but the cancer was actually growing. So we added Revlimid and it has been amazing.
      Dexamethasone Considering
      We are not going to take it for the next 3 weeks to see if it has any additive benefit. It seems that Revlimin is doing all the work. No side effects
      Revlimid Working / Worked
      I have been very lucky in that my side effects have been minimal and easily tolerated
      Velcade Considering
      Only side effect was it made me tired
      Zometa Working / Worked
      I have no side effects.
      Relaxation Working / Worked
      We are leaving on Friday for a week in Hawaii The Big Island. My oncologist is concerned about my low white cell counts. So he wrote a couple of antibiotics so I can call him and he will tell me what to take. I am looking forward to relaxing!
