Did the MM cause your kidney issue? I know that it often does kidney damage before diagnosed. I was and am lucky that so far I do not have that situation but was told I know have T8 damage which is affecting my spine and rib cage. I have 25 mgs of Revlimid so hoping you are right and it is working when fatigued! I have done some 2 and 3 mile walks when it was warmer. I think they are trying to get it down with 40 grams of dexamethasone also and Velcade. I was on it last year through September so hope still working. I guess I need to be more patient!!! I hope that you can have a transplant! My husband’s brother in law was a match for Bernie and all went well there. I see they now seem to do a lot of swaps so that more can receive. I seem to be okay with appetite and no rash yet. Maybe I am tolerating it okay. I am at day 10 so about halfway in my first round. I know being so anxious is bad so I will try to follow your example! The down side is I am always checking my pulse! That is actually how I was diagnosed as thought having a heart issue but MM found. Actually used my DVT to get a CT scan. Last year at this time I was blissfully unaware I had this. Happier days!!! I need to think they will come again!!!
