Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Topomax and lamictal is not responsible for multiple myeloma. It is not drug induced. It is plasma cell myeloma. It has some genetic causes. She should take treatment urgently. Lenalidomide (Revlimid) plus dexamethasone or bortezomib (Valcade) are the drug of choice for multiple myeloma. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly. And it is not due to topomax and lamictal so don't worry about that.
