Greg,

How long were you on Revlimid and did your dosing change over time?

I was on 25 mg 14 day cycle off for 10 during chemo third cycle broke out in rash.
Then 10 mg for about from July 2011 - october 2011, broke out in a rash. This was 28 day cycle no break
October went to 5mg 28 day cycle no break rach strarted back in Feb 2012. Told doctors I had enough my body does not like it. They took me off, if they didnt i would have. not messing with stephen johson syndrome.

I go back in March for my 3 month check up. We will talk then. They know I am ready for holilistic approach now

Some patients are switched to Thalidamide in such cases. You might ask about it, if you haven't already.

I am sure they are going to try and put me on that. Just have to wait and see. My test results will tell me.
