Lenalidomide "Revlimid has put my follicular lymphoma in remission. For 21 years, other drugs have had a similar effect. However, Revlimid caused a very strong reaction on my skin, which, along with another side effect, led my oncologist to suspend the treatment before the expected end. That other side effect is glaucoma in both eyes. I have practically lost vision in my left eye. I have no definitive proof of this, but I noticed a rapid decline in my vision after starting the drug, and it improved when the drug was stopped. Another oncologist shared similar experiences with some patients. In summary, I am in remission two years after stopping the treatment, but with only one functioning eye."

"I have been on this medication for 14 months. It has helped my condition. As of right now, it has worked, and my spots have disappeared. My side effects include no smell, weakness, and numbness in my right hand/fingers. I am tired, but I still work and do what I need to do. I do have stomach pains and bowel issues at times."
