Ok so you are down the road from me here in Bend. I get my weekly infusion at St Charles medical center.
At some point in the future whe revlimid becomes less effective I will be eligible for car-t. Will that be an option for you?
I hope your new treatment plan has great results. Keep staying strong!

@oregonami58 I am glad you will be eligible to car-t. Have you figured where you will go? Knight Cancer in Seattle or OHSU perhaps? Unfortunately, I am not a good candidate for either stem cell or Car-T. This definitely gave me pause, and changed my mindset. Knowing I am living with these two conditions that are my present and future realities, it is to embrace each day as a gift.

Yes, staying strong is my goal. and hoping it is yours, also!
