My advice to all with MM is to find the best healthcare providers you can. Not all doctors are the same. I was diagnosed in 2018, had heart valve replacement surgery, vascular surgery, kyphoplasties, stem cell transplant, blood transfusion, 15 months of chemotherapy , and Revlimid. As of last week, my hematologist-oncologist told me the cancer is no longer a concern. Yes, it’s there but the number of cancer cells, originally at thousands per million are now at fewer than 10. Where are the best doctors? A lifetime of healthcare for my family and myself has led me to a publicly funded university hospital. The doctors spend two days a week in clinic, two days a week teaching, and one day a week researching in their field. They don’t order unnecessary tests or procedures and they will be among the first, if not the first, to learn of a cure.
