Myeloma: Revlimid and steroids: How quickly do side effects subside?
Blood Cancers & Disorders | Last Active: Jan 9, 2023 | Replies (22)Comment receiving replies
I’m doing remarkably well. All of my blood counts have rebounded and I was home after 14 days in the hospital! I have been walking 1 to 2 miles a day to help with energy levels. Still have some afternoon fatigue and doing my best to get my appetite back.
Overall I am blessed to have very little side effects and recovering well after 28 days.
Thanks so much for checking in on me and would be glad to assist anyone with any questions or to give any insights on my stem cell journey.
Have a blessed thanksgiving and holiday season. I got this!

Good morning, @dkandalec! It’s wonderful to hear you’re doing so well after your transplant! That’s the best Thanksgiving news.
It sounds like you’re doing everything right and the walking is one of the most beneficial activities you can do to keep recharging your body! Good job! ☺️
Your input for other members who have Multiple Myeloma and need a stem cell transplant will be invaluable! That’s what makes this forum so special. We are all here for each other and sharing our experiences can become someone else’s survival guide. So thank you for running to the rescue of @callie28, wondering what her husband can do for his nausea post transplant! Your reply was perfect! ☺️ There’s nothing like information from someone who has ‘walked the walk”.
When do you return for your followup?

My husband had his stem cell transplant yesterday Nov. 23 rd. Having a hard time getting the nausea under control. Have tried lots of meds.. Any recommendations on any particular meds working the best? Thanks
