I was diagnosed dec 20 2023 my last treatment is December 23rd 2024 I'm doing well the myeloma attacked my spine and hip lesions was for i had surgery for both and do really well Dr is so impressed how fast I went into remission. But I worry it will come back to soon, I'm 66 years young and this is the 1st time I have ever been sick I've been healthy always but I'm over weight. I'm working on that as well.

This really helpful and I'm 66 year young I have a wonderful team of doctors at MD Anderson in Houston Texas and I will be on maintenance the end of December praying the mm want return for a long time. Thank you for letting me know it can be 4 years because I read on the internet 2 years
Stem cell harvesting didn't work for me so I'm hoping that was a sign I will not need it šŸ˜…
