I'm was diagnosed October 2019, the Oncology-Hematology Dr. Tell me that my treatment was 4 rounds of chemotherapy and after SCT Auto transplant . The 4 treatments start at the end of October 2019, was treated with KYPROLIS, Desametasone and Revlimid infusions, was 2 days every week for 4 months, I was lucky enough to don't have any reaccion at all. The transplant was delayed because the Covid-19 started, but in September 2020 they call me to make sure I was ready for the transplant, was admitted at the Ochsner Cancer Center in New Orleans ,Louisiana, October 21,2020, the SCT Auto was October 23,2020 , I was lucky to because don't have any big problems, was for 17 days. I was discharged and have a check with my Oncology Dr every month,

I completely understand as I don’t have anyone to talk to also. I’m a widow & I live alone. My oldest son died in 2021 & my youngest son & his family live 3 hours. My father is dead & my mother has chronic back pain & is immobile. My younger sister lives with our mother & she is going through a divorce from her husband who abandoned her. My sister doesn’t visit me, help me, call me & rarely texts me. I have various cousins, a niece & nephew that are spread out in nearby states but are hours away from me. After I told my friends I had cancer, they quit contacting me. I have learned how to be my own care giver. It has been very difficult. I’ll admit I’ve been depressed, cried a lot, felt sorry for myself but I never gave up. I prayed & read my Bible everyday. Then I found cancer groups online like this one where I could share what I was going through & got empathetic responses. That really kept me going. I hope you find someone to talk to but I highly recommend the online cancer chat groups.

Hello everyone,
How are you today?
As you know, there are a variety of treatment options for multiple myeloma depending on the case and patient. Some of these include:
What type of treatment have you undergone for your multiple myeloma? What was the experience like? Did you have any side effects? How are you doing post-treatment?
