A brief recap since it’s been a while— Rob’s multiple myeloma relapsed in 2024, and he has been in a clinical trial ever since.
Rob’s latest myeloma numbers look amazing!
We are incredibly grateful for this.
Unfortunately, Rob is having constant severe muscle pain due to cramps and spasms in his arms, legs, and stomach, in addition to major fatigue. This has been going on about a month.
From his oncology appointment last week, we learned there is a possibility that this is chemo induced muscle spasams.
We are meeting with palliative care (now called Supportive Oncology at Levine Cancer) this Thursday to discuss further, and will follow up with his hematologist oncologist as well.

Multiple Myeloma is a cancer that relapses, as we have seen already. As such, many remain on treatment to prevent the next relapse as long as possible.
I’ll update once we know more.
Thank you for reading!
Keep Pounding Rob!
