    My mom was diagnosed and passed after around 8 months of fighting. She had a 100% stem cell sibling match, we had so much hope that she had all the odds on her side. Unfortunately she faced every side effect, every bad thing you hope doesn’t happen and in the end the transplant failed. I have been destroyed since loosing her, she was only 64 years old and still had so much life to live. We had so much faith she was going to survivor that we never discussed the possibility of her passing, what her wishes may be, or to say goodbye. Something we really wish we had done even though it was going to be extremely difficult. I’m so happy you beat this and I can only imagine the joy you and your family feel. All the best and so much love to you 💙

    I'm 10 months post transplant. My transplant month in the hospital was a nightmare, with bowel incontinence and bleeding from my back side while having extremely low platelets and hemoglobin, requiring almost daily transfusions of both. I also had one dangerous infection for a few days. My appetite was terrible and through the entire process I lost 50 pounds, and that was after coming in with a very fit body. I still have some GVHD issues with regard to my GI system, but nothing too terrible. Had one hospital stay a month after the transplant stay for some GVHD issues, but that was only for a few days. Then I had another hospital stay for a few days that was 6 months post transplant, which was for a bad case of CMV because of my low white cell count. They gave me heavy doses of Foscarnet in the hospital and then for 3 weeks afterwards through an IV at home. Since then it has been pretty smooth, and my bone marrow biopsies have been clear so far.

    Hi Tyler, I very much enjoyed hearing about your two year update. My wife had a stem cell transplant (post leukemia treatment diagnosed June 26, 2019) on September 28, 2019 so we are approaching her 2 year mark. She has spent about 6 months of those two years in the hospital. (17 days of those were this last December when she battled Covid with a compromised immune system). Anyway, I just wanted to say I have gained comfort in our situation by watching you go through what appears to be a very similar situation with such a positive attitude. You definitely have been a source of hope for me and so far she is doing great as well!

    One of the deepest point for me was about the 60th day after BMT. Numbers weren’t great, needed IV products really often, so had to do another bone marrow test and my doctor said there’s some chance they’ll find cancer cells again…as you know(better than me), on this stage you can’t do too much. Chemo wasn’t really working for me and you can’t retry BMT that early. So they told me if they find any cancer cells, I only have 1-2months left. They promised me the results in 3days, but they sorted out really quickly, so had the result on the next day, no cancer cells. That 24hours seemed like a week…it was awful. I’m 36, and was lucky to see and live more than couple of guys over 60, but obviously I wanted to live more. I always LOVED Canada, so that point made it so clear, I can’t die anywhere else. In that 24hours we checked flight tickets and everything in case we have to rush. Luckily we aren’t in a rush, but it was a really big head up, you know when the life screams into your face, “MAN!!! GO BACK TO CANADA!!” :D At that point it’s really easy to see what you REALLY want.
    So hopefully we can sort that in 2-3years now and relocate :D

    Hello! Great videos, which I've only just found. I have Multiple Myeloma Cancer and had lots of chemo and then my BMT in December 2019. Like you, I too absolutely 'refused to accept the circumstances I was in', and was 100% compliant with everything the hospital asked me to do, and was 'determined' to do well after my transplant and not to relapse too fast. And yet I DID. I relapsed this April 2021, so I was only in remission for 16 months. And now I am back on 2 days of IV chemo each week. So I would gently say that one has to be a little careful about telling people that your spirit and 'strength' and determination and refusal to accept the circs you're in, have helped you to stay clear. Because, believe me, I have been determined, strong and brave too - and yet I relapsed after just 16 months. Just a thought....

    • @TylerBlah
      @TylerBlah  Před 3 lety +2

      Hi Sophie ! Thanks for sharing your experience with the BMT. Sorry to hear about the relapse, but glad to hear that treatment started back 👌 I remember when I relapsed for the first time, it was a crappy experience but being able to start back treatment straight away helped me deal with it personally.
      Thanks for raising an issue about the strength of spirit to refuse to give up, but it was more of a comment about my inspiration and motivation during treatment. Not a method that I attributed to causing anything for cure, only how it gave me the ability to deal with the big mental health issues that I personally faced and know many others face during too. Sorry if I came off differently in the video, just wanted to provide an answer to the question of inspiration that I often get asked. 👍😊 All my strength to you in this next stage Sophie 💪💪💙💙

Ironically, it sounds actually as though we've dealt with what has been facing us, in incredibly similar ways. I think I was just having an evening of slight despair last night, at having relapsed post transplant so quickly, when I had been so full of optimism that I would be clear for at least two years! BUT really I have accepted it, and obviously still feel incredibly grateful for my transplant, and I am now getting on with the new rather brutal chemo regime and REMAIN hopeful.

    I have ph+ ALL, go to Dana Farber in Boston and just passed Day +100. Good labs, zero leukemia and BCR/ABL detected at 100 day bone marrow biopsy. Chimerism on Day 30 was 84 (T cells)/100/97 and on Day 100 was 95/76/76. My team says not to be alarmed , that chimerism can be dynamic and they reduced immunosuppressives and say if this doesn't help it improve eventually we can consider DLI/stem cell boost. This process can be so nerve wracking but trying to focus on the zero leukemia!

      I have ALL ph+ as well but I’ve been diagnosed 2 weeks ago and currently doing a experimental cure and not chemotherapy. I don’t know what to think honestly. I hope this works but I’ll probably have to do a transplant in the future.
      What was your experience with this cancer? Let me know. I’m from Italy and I don’t have anyone that I know that it’s going through what I’m going through. I would love to have a conversation with someone who did.
      Thank u very much if you’re going to text back. That would mean a lot and let me know also how your doing now!
      Lots of love

    Hello from 🇨🇦 I am so impressed by your story. I have ALL with Philadelphia chromosome, I’m considered a rare case. I have done 4 intensive chemo rounds including intrathecal chemos. All went well!! I have met with the transplant team and they scared the heck out of me! I have another option which is to do a treatment given by MD Anderson in Texas. As a medical student you must know they are, the top in the world in dealing with leukaemia. The treatment is called BLINATUMUMAB. it’s been successful but still a young treatment and the outcome after 5 years is unknown. It is much less invasive then transplant, barely any side effects. I’m 51 with 5 kids and so afraid to die from transplant complications.
    My brother is my match, I fear the common problem with transplant graph vs host could happen. I’d love to hear your take on this. Wishing you a healthy continued success. You are extremely inspiring ❤️

      @TylerBlah  Před 3 lety

      Hi Maya Marshmallow! Yes I've heard of MD anderson. It's on a lot of the facebook groups I am in. It's super that your brother was your match. I can fully understand that GvHD is a scary concept to have to face, it was very difficult for me beforehand when I considered it. But I know in myself I knew I'd live with it, if it was the chance for a cure. And as I learnt from my experience, it doesn't always occur, as in my situation I did not get any GvHD.

    I am really happy that it worked well for you. I personally couldn't face going through it in 2019 and still worry about going through it. I also live in Australia and the low chance of survival persuaded me at that time away from having chemo and a stem cell transplant for myeloma. Smouldering or otherwise. The medical system wanted to rush me through it and all I felt at the time about was similar to someone trying to push me off a cliff. So I moved in the other direction.

I still live with pain but I have to survive so I try to do what I can everyday to take my mind off of it and so far that is working. I ditched bad habits and have a healthier diet. Exercise hurts to begin with but helps in the long run. I took my chances and am still alive 5 years later.

How is that possible right after I would love to know I am currently battling AML and I’m holding off on a transplant right now I do to them, not finding any traces of leukemia in my bone marrow after my induction, and to consolidations but I do feel alone, and there’s so many people that has the same story or similar stories.
