Hi Greg

Thank you for your response.  Yes, he has the same problem, will start a conversation and completely forget what he is going to say.  I really feel for him but at least I know it is the medication.  It is also the mood swings and the highs and lows of taking dexa which is difficult to manage.  Did you suffer from this and if so, do you have any suggestions of how managed this yourself.  Regards Lisa

Hi, my husband has recently been diagnosed with Myleoma and is currently taking the combination of medication known as CDT.  Recently, it has come to my attention that his memory is really bad, as he cannot remember what he wants to talk to me about and his moods vary.  He takes the dexa tablets for four days at a time and then comes off them for a bit and then goes back on them for a four day period.  I understand that mood swings and irritability are possible side effects of dexa but has anyone experienced memory issues and confusion as it is concerning me at present.  Any information would be greatly appreciated.  Regards Lisa
