Hi Meg, I am also high risk and am scheduled to have my transplant in 11 days. I’d really be interested in hearing more about your experience with the high-dose chemo. How old are you? I’m 55.

Not sure how to message privately, but I’d really like to pick your brain if you have the time!

Hi @ttjk531, Welcome to Connect. I’m so happy to see you’re already ‘connecting’ with other members who have MM and undergoing the autologous stem cell transplant.

As a new member, there’s a waiting period before you’re able to private message anyone, such as @meg1685. It’s just temporary. Since this amazing forum is all about support, encouragement and offering hope between members, keeping the conversations right out in the open benefits countless others who may be going through a similar diagnosis or treatment.

Feel free to ask any questions you may have about your upcoming ASCT. Are you having to relocate for 6 weeks or so for the procedure?

Hi! I'm also 55. I'm happy to answer questions here in this forum.

When you say high-dose chemo, are you talking about the 2 days of melphalan?
