If I’m reading your question correctly are you saying that someone who is diagnosed with multiple myeloma and received no treatment whatsoever recovers and gets well on their own? If that happened to me I would be deemed St. Mark II as it would certainly be a miracle. To the contrary your life would probably be snuffed out in the not-too-distant-future.

And even with treatment there is no cure. It’s like diabetes. It can only be treated.

Yes, I have, I was diagnosed in June of 2020. Had RVD For 5 months then a stem cell transplant. Came out of that with minimum residual disease.
Went on clinical study using just daratutumub and this Bone marrow biopsy in March came out I was in complete response. Feeling totally grateful
