📘 My Myeloma Journey — A Hopeful Story of Healing and Remission My story with multiple myeloma began in late 2024, when a large thyroid mass and some unexplained symptoms led my doctors to look deeper. Tests revealed IgG Kappa multiple myeloma, and a bone marrow biopsy showed the cancer was active. It was frightening, but it also marked the beginning of a journey toward healing. I started treatment right away with a strong combination of medicines, including Darzalex. Those early months were challenging, but something very important happened: my body responded beautifully. Month by month, the numbers moved in the right direction. The mass shrank. The bone lesions stabilized. The cancer proteins dropped—fast. By the spring of 2025, my blood work showed no measurable M-protein, meaning the main marker of myeloma was essentially gone. Through the summer, scans continued to show improvement. Each appointment brought a bit more hope. Then came September 2025: my PET scan showed no evidence of active myeloma anywhere. It was the kind of news every patient hopes for. And in November 2025, I received one of the strongest signs of remission possible: my MRD (minimal residual disease) test came back below the limit of detection. In simple terms, they could barely find even a trace of myeloma cells—an outstanding response. Today, I am officially in deep remission. I continue on maintenance Darzalex to keep everything stable, and my doctors are very pleased with how well I’m doing. This has been a long road, but it is a story filled with progress, resilience, and God’s grace. My myeloma is quiet, controlled, and being held firmly in check.
