Considering SCT at 71: Seeking Advice & Confidence
AI-generated title
My husband is 71 and was diagnosed 5 months ago. He's doing well on dara, velcade, dexa and revlimid and now only every other week. Our hematologist/oncologist, Dr. Vogl at U of Penn, recommended a SCT. We're nervous about dying in the hospital from infection etc. He had a cardiac stent placed in 2015 so will need some anticoagulant added to the process. Considering that Dr. Vogl knows all this and recommends the SCT, we're inclined to go forward. Anyone have any wisdom on attitude, confidence, health tips?
