Anyone have less bone pain after CyBorD?

by Little Monkey on Thu Oct 08, 2015 8:20 pm

Has anyone here found they had less bone pain after being treated with a CyBorD (cyclophosphamide, Velcade, dexamethasone) regimen compared to before treatment ?

When I was diagnosed, I started induction therapy with CyBorD and I began monthly Zometa treatments. After a few months my fractured vertebra healed on its own and that relieved a major bone pain. The minor pain of bone lesions on my ribs also went away.

Thanks for the response; I'm cautiously hoping some of my dad's leg pain will be lowered once he starts his CyBorD regimen.
