Hi @cwh I seem to recall seeing that someone didn’t qualify for a SCT for MM and maybe that’s what you saw too. It’s not always warranted and unfortunately, now everyone is a candidate for the procedure. I did have a bone marrow transplant from an unrelated donor. It appears that most people having a stem cell transplant for multiple myeloma are able to use their own cells, as in the case of your husband. It’s still not an easy few months of recovery, but has fewer side effects such as rejection or graft vs host disease because they are the patient’s own cells. So I do hope at some point your husband is able to continue with the treatment. It can help give some longevity and a better quality to life.

So you’re moving from Florida to Iowa? Seems like you’re going the wrong way! The weather up here in the Midwest is still winter. We have minus 5 this morning in northern Wisconsin and it’s almost April. 🥶 You know my next question…why?

I wasn't clear about the move. It's to Florida. Makes more sense, right? Thanks for sharing you reply.
