I was diagnosed with MM after I broke a vertebrae in an auto accident and another one after I slipped on a wet deck and hit my back. My first diagnosis was stage IIIB. My kidneys were shutting down and they debated whether I should go on dialysis or try to flush them with IVs of constant liquid. I was lucky because the liquids worked, but I still have elevated levels every time I have blood tests. There are treatments that I couldn't have because of my kidneys. I have been out of remission since 2020 but not on any treatment. My most recent blood work was last week and I won't have to go on treatment yet. I am also allergic to the treatment drug Revlimid and any drug in that class so not having treatment is a good thing.
