Re: Leg and foot pain after treatment - anyone had it?

My dad has had leg and foot pain and numbness before treatment and during treatment. It is part of the reason his hematologist had pulled him off Velcade two thirds of the way through his nine months of treatment.

My husband was treated with Revlimid, Velcade, and dexamethasone (RVD) and started having same pain. We tried all sorts of meds. Started Cymbalta (duloxetine) 20 mg everyday and the pain went away.

Hope this helps.
