Hi
I agree with you, there is no logical explanation why drugs are not used again if they worked the first time. As your myeloma has not become refractory to the drug yet (I assume the PP numbers did not start to rise while on CTD), why not use the same drug again? Alternatively, as Thalidomide worked so well for you, why not use the related drug Lenalidomide? This should be available for everyone. Maybe the consultant thinks that they need to use something that acts very quickly, but surely it would be good to use something that is known to work too. Good luck with the whichever treatment it will be.
