Event Description

In this interactive event, we will be discussing side effects that non-secretory myeloma patients experience and sharing solutions. Side effects might include pain during bone marrow biopsies, bone pain, fatigue, and anxiety due to PET Scans, MRIs or BMBs. By sharing the side effects that affect us, and the solutions we have tried that have been helpful (or unhelpful), we can help each other. Todd Foster, Head of Product at HealthTree will also join us to share a short demo on our Side Effect Solutions product. This product aims to gather real world data so all myeloma patients can see what works and what doesn't for other patients going through the same side effects. We look forward to discussing with you!

Vicki Jones

In the 20 years since her diagnosis Vicki has learned a lot about fighting myeloma. In her own words, "When I was diagnosed it felt like I was the only one in the world with this disease. After always having been a bit of a loner, suddenly I yearned for someone to talk to that understood what I was going through. Now I want to be that someone for other myeloma patients and caregivers". Vicki has been on just about every chemo regimen and has had a stem cell transplant. Every drug regimen has worked against her Myeloma but she has never been in complete remission. She recently became a nonsecretor and is learning to deal with this new diagnosis. "When I was diagnosed in 2004 it made me sad to think I would never know what it was like to grow old. Now when I look in the mirror and see all the wrinkles, I’m overjoyed!"
