Ann was diagnosed at 64 in August, 2022 after her primary care physician ordered a urinalysis during her annual physical. It was abnormal and she quickly referred Ann to a Myeloma specialist/hematologist Though she had no symptoms at all and was very active, Ann was diagnosed with Stage 3 Myeloma and AL Amyloidosis. She had an ASCT in January 2023 and is currently receiving Revlimid and Dara for maintenance therapy. She has continued to be very active: traveling to Europe; hiking in the mountains; playing tennis; and doing reformer pilates all at the same intensity/frequency as before her diagnosis. It was important to her to stay active throughout her diagnosis and treatment. She was playing tennis 5 weeks after ASCT, and back to league play in 2 months. She has received tremendous value from HealthTree coaches and is passionate about paying it forward and wants to support others in their myeloma journey.
