From Anna,
Hi MCrow, Not sure what you mean by first cycles. This is not his first time on chemo by any means. I've lost count. Just his first time in while. Dad's on a chemo called Revlimid. This is a new drug. He takes it for 21 day then gets a week off and on the Monday's he takes a little bit of Dex, the steriod. Mostly the check his protein through his blood if that's what your asking. Once in a while they check his urine. Hope I answered your questions.
Your friend,
Anna
