Seeking Advice for Multiple Myeloma Treatment Options

Especially with MM everybody reacts differently to treatments. This is why you need to go to the best MM specialist you can find. They can look at what type of MM you have and, if you had a gene array done of your normal cells in comparison your myeloma cells, to determine the best starting point for you. Even with that starting point, adjustments will have to be made to find your best path. Do not settle for a blood-cancer specialists. They will see more leukemia and lymphoma case than MM. You need a doctor who sees myeloma patients every day. Now the treatments focus on immune-system boosters instead of the heavy, heavy chemo that I got when I first started. Be an advocate for yourself as you learn but listen to your specialist. Good luck.
