Want to talk about Multiple Myeloma: Anyone else?

Hi @jcctsg I wanted to add my welcome along with @davi0937 and @gingerw to Mayo Connect.
As they mentioned there are several discussions in the forum with members who have undergone an autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT - using their own cells) in treatment for Multiple Myeloma.
One discussion in particular popped into my head that you might find helpful. This is from @jstpeachey posted a few years ago about her experience with ASCT.

Please feel free to drop into any of the discussions in the support group. Are there any specific questions I can answer for you?

Thank you so much for your warm welcome. Yes, I would like to know if anyone decided not to continue maintenance treatment after being on it for 1 or 2 years of velcade or revlimid? Anyone stopped due to side effects? Also is it okay to resume hair colouring at the salon with ammonia free colour?
