Have you had a Bone Marrow Transplant? Diagnosed Jan '25 and going for a BMT consultation to see what the whole process entails.

Hi @treehouse5437 If you’re considering a stem cell transplant (SCT) for multiple myeloma, you might be interested in these discussions. You’ll be able read through discussions from other members who have gone through this process.

MM Stage 6 done, any thoughts--BMT or monthly treatment

For MM, it’s generally an autologous transplant (ASCT) using your own cells. It is different than an allogenic bone marrow transplant where donor cells are used.
You’ll learn more with your upcoming consultation. Do you live near a transplant center?
