For Multiple Myeloma "My father has been living with multiple myeloma since 2007. He was first prescribed Revlimid for the first 2 years. The medication made him achy and cranky, and he had a relapse after the first year. He switched doctors and was immediately put on Pomalyst. He has been taking Pomalyst ever since and is still in remission. He still feels soreness and weakness, but he never feels any pain while taking Pomalyst."

For Multiple Myeloma "Ten years after a dual stem cell transplant and aggressive chemo, the multiple myeloma returned. After taking Revlimide for six months, it did not help. I began taking 4 mg of Pomalyst. Over two years later, my blood tests improved. The only side effect is slight tingling in my toes and fingertips."

For Multiple Myeloma "After 5 months of bortezomib, dexamethasone, thalidomide, cisplatin, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide, and etoposide (VDT PACE) regimen to reduce circulating plasma cells, I took Pomalyst for 5 months to further reduce the cancer in circulation and in bone marrow. Good response and had auto SCT (autologous stem-cell transplantation). The transplant didn’t achieve a great response, and being off treatment for 6 months, my counts were going up again. Restarted Pomalyst and have had a very good response in 9 weeks. Will continue treatment and hope for zero circulating cells. Will do a BMB in another 1.5 months. Neuropathy in toes and fingertips."
