Thank you BOTH so much. Taught me a lot to help guide mom with her treatment decisions
❤ thank you for your work with multiple myeloma
Thank you for this presentation! I just completed a bone marrow transplant for a related blood plasma cell disorder called POEMS Syndrome. I went through the same Dara + Rev + Dex and had a great response. My BMT/Hematology/Oncology doc told me the same thing, that BMT would likely be complementary. Currently there is no sign of the plasma cells.
Excellent!
If only Daratumumab was available here in New Zealand!
Aussie living in Hawaii here just found out I have SMM.
What drugs do they use in NZ?
What's the difference between a stem cell and bone marrow transplant? I had an allogeneic bone marrow transplant to cure leukemia in 2009. Just wondering what the difference is or is it the same? Yeah, I underwent physical test like an astronaut before the transplant. I had to prove I was in excellent shape other than the leukemia. Now I know why.
Excellent speaker.
