Young with MM & Amyloidosis: Seeking Advice?
AI-generated title
I am 36 years old and recently diagnosed with MM with AL Amyloidosis in March 2025 after experiencing swelling in my body and a bony lesion forming above my right eye. I started chemo (Darzalex Faspro + Cyclophosphamide + Velcade) in May 2025 and I receive it on a weekly basis. I’ve been told many times that I am not the typical demographic for this type of cancer and even more atypical because of the amyloidosis tacked on. I will likely have an ASCT at the end of this chemo regimen at the end of the year. Are there others who were diagnosed at a younger age and/or with amyloidosis? What has helped you throughout your journey, personally and work-wise? Mine is just getting started and I’m experiencing all kinds of highs and lows…while also maintaining a full-time career as a CPA.
