a month agoHello. My husband had his first round of Revlimid in 2023. He ended up in the hospital with complications. It did help his numbers. Currently he is just being watched closely.

a month agoTreatment complications can be really challenging to navigate, especially when a medication shows promise but also causes serious side effects. It sounds like you're both dealing with a difficult balance between potential benefits and safety concerns. Many in this community have faced similar decisions about continuing or pausing treatments after hospitalizations. Have others here experienced complications with this medication, and how did you and your care team decide on the best path forward during your monitoring period?
