Hi Mavis!
I had 6 cycles of CDT prior to my SCT and only really experienced general tiredness during that time – according to my husband I did not get much of the Dex attitude others got, so maybe you will miss out on that "privilege" too!
I have also been lucky with having no pain from bone marrow biopsies, but others have said they always ask for some kind of anasthetic as they did find their first one extremely painful.
Each time I go for a BMB I make a point of telling the doctor that so far (unlike the tales I read on the internet) I have not yet had pain from the procedure and I hope he is not going to hurt me, which I think puts them in the right mindset for making sure they are really careful.
Wishing you an uneventful MM journey
