Thoughts on Early Treatment for High-Risk SMM?
AI-generated title
Watch and wait or treat now for Smoldering MM? Hi I’m 67 almost 68 female diagnosed with high risk SMM and made the decision to fight off this disease. I have a wonderful oncologist and his team working to do everything for me in this fight. Previously started on Revlimid but had side effects that my Oncologist suggested we switch to Darvalex infusions recently approved for this treatment which he said I may tolerate better. I had extremely itchy scalp, fatigue, constipation and a scary episode of Afib. Anyone here have thoughts on the wait n watch vs treat now? I feel fortunate that this had been found early enough for me to have an option and going forward live my life as long as possible! My parents both lived to 89 and have always thought I’d have a good long life also. Remaining positive! 🙏
