How Fast Can Multiple Myeloma Progress and What Biologically Happens When It Does? 

I’m only halfway through the recording, but this is absolutely the most helpful and informative source of MM knowledge I’ve come across in a long time. Thank you both for your time and energy.

Awesome informative forum. I am being treated at MD Anderson Cancer Center. My oncologist does not offer such information!

Thank you for the subject matter!

I enjoyed watching this and was given great answers as a Multiple Myeloma patient. I go to Metro Hospital in Cleveland Ohio and what Medicare does not cover the Hospital does, it's called being rated.. I first seen a Dr. Wong, then she left and I was given a CNP, now she is leaving. My next appointment is with an Oncologist Dr. Lan. I'm doing well on Revlimid now for about 1 yr and half. I'm worried should I see a Myeloma specialist ? I don't think my Dr.'s that I see are specialists in this area. I sure wish Dr. Wong on this webinar was near me, she was fantastic! I go to Metro because of the rating I get because it could be to expensive for me. If you know any specialists in my area I would love to know who. Thank you Angie

Great information!!

Great session, very helpful.

Very informative. I didn't know Dara only affects the M Spike of Kappa light chains. I was led to believe, it affect both Kappa and Lambda. Thanks.

I only had remission for 5 months this last time and in one month my M spike went to 1.7 g/Dl . Does that mean the myeloma is more aggressive cause my last remission lasted for three years

The big thing for me is I get a lot of infections, including MRSA, cellulitis, osteomyelitis, sepsis, etc. it gets really old I just feel like I am getting them constantly. My last remission lasted only five months. Based off my light chain ratio being over 100 and my M spike, jumping up to almost 2.5 during remission that is why they started it back up but I could barely get through treatment without getting infections, and I had sepsis twice during treatment

I want to learn more about “connect”

I'm 45 yrs old n since a year I have pain in my back, lateral ribs, sternum with a history of persistent cough for seven months. .but recently the cough is gone I have a lot of dysnoea, fatigue, n lots of pain in both upper arms in the humerous, my labs - I'm anarmic, esr raised to 50, BP is 168/110, my CT scan shows inflammed pancreatic head, normal urine test reports normal...I have lots of bony pain especially in my mind back, sternum, ribs, pain in my right loin n hip, fatigue, anaemia, hypertension n stress...pls let me know what to do im not diagnosed with mm though

Is it true that M Gus doesn’t necessarily turn into multiple myeloma? And what are the numbers on this?

Please dumb it down, you’re still talking way over my head. I’m 67 and still don’t understand most of what you explained. Labs and tech terms only mean something to the people in the medical field. How come nobody can put this scary stuff in a street language?

Can multiple myeloma leave leave your system i mean your body

It would have been better if this Dr. can spoke a bit slower; explained a lot better, and, laughed a lot less!

Good grief, this doctor is on speed.
