Good morning @dkandalec. Thank you for sharing your positive story with taking the Revlimid and steroids for your multiple myeloma. I’m happy to see you’ve achieved remission and can now launch forward into your next adventure along this journey.

We have members who’ve recently underwent the same stem cell transplant for various blood diseases and have had very positive and inspirational stories they’ve shared with us.
When you’re ready, I’d like to introduce you to @countrygirlusa and her story in this discussion:

~And another member, @capthondo and his story. “Want to talk about multiple myeloma: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/747475/

I hope you’ll keep us posted on your journey and don’t hesitate to pop in with any questions. I just realized you’ve been a member since last September but it’s your first time posting. I hope it’s the first of many because you have a wonderfully positive attitude and were so encouraging for @marypluzes with the information for her mom.

Do you have any questions about your upcoming Stem Cell Transplant? I’m expecting this is an autologous transplant using your own cells. Is the transplant center near your hometown so you don’t have to travel or are you all set with lodging?

Thanks so much for sharing the links!
Yes this is an autologous transplant and I am close enough to the transplant hospital ( 70 miles) to be able to return home after the hospital stay.
I appreciate this sight as a resource and willing to share any information with others to support there journey.
I am blessed to have the Mayo teams support!
