Small cell carcinoma of the bladder (SCCB): anyone else?

Hi Lori, thanks for the helpful information and the suggestions on ameliorating antibodies. I seem to have a good tolerance to them, no effects from them.

I'm pleased to say that Medicare has approved my IVIG infusions. I found antibody vaccine data from a couple of years ago which I forwarded to my heme/onc. She sent it to Medicare this a.m. and apparently they concur with her determination that I need IVIG infusions despite having Smoldering Myeloma. A small victory but I'll take it.

Excellent news with the IVIG approval, Richard! Pays to be the squeaky wheel sometimes!! 😉 It’s a shame we have to push so hard for treatments that we need and our doctor’s order. But this had a happy ending, so congratulations for being determined!
This should give you the much needed boost to your antibodies and keep you healthier.
Let me know how you’re feeling afterwards! ☺️
