Radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatments can make you feel tired and unwell, although the effects vary from person to person. It may be several weeks or months before you feel better, especially if you have had high dose chemotherapy and stem cell rescue.
After treatment you will have regular follow up checks so your doctor can see how you are getting on. Some patients continue to have bone pain, and the doctor may treat this with pain-relieving drugs.
When myeloma comes back, you may need some further treatment to make you feel better. Your doctor will discuss the options with you at that time.
