My mother was sick in 2018, diagnosed with everything except Poems. Finally went to Mayo Clinic in 2021, diagnosed with Poems. We just started revelmid (spelling may be off). Now she been taking it for only a month off and on as required I guess, she has suddenly broken out with a skin rash all over the body lie hives. Is this related to Poems, cause everything else has been ruled out

Welcome @selmon30, I don't have any experience with POEMS or revlimid but a rash is listed as one of the common side effects of the drug:
