Hi
Not many replies (recently) on this but Im definitely interested in RA and SMM combo.
I was diagnosed with Myeloma in 2011 – two and half years ago – thank goodness it appears to be smoldering. 10 years earlier I had bad unexplained arthritis and every few years after that I had more episodes. I took diclofenac which was great for the arthritis but is bad for myeloma so they stopped me in 2011. Since then arthritis has got much worse – especially my back but also in the original place – my feet. I havent been diagnosed as Rheumatoid Arthritis (yet) but it seems to accompany flu like symptoms so I think theres a connection. Not only does the SMM make the RA worse – because I have low immunity – but I suspect one causes other although I dont know which way round yet.
Keep me informed please on any developments
Thanks.
Anthony
