Deciding on ASCT for Mom in Remission
AI-generated title
Hello all. My mother was diagnosed with Lamba light chain MM in April 2023 at the age of 60 yo her FISH test was normal but had a few small bone lesions around her body. She started her treatment with a MM specialist at UCI in Orange, CA in June 5. Her doctor slowly started her on Dexamethasone first for two weeks, then every week or two Velcade, then Revlimid and lastly Daratumumab by July 11 her doctor confirmed she was in a complete remission 2-3 months earlier than average according to her doctor. The next step her doctor is recommending is an Autologous Stem Cell Transplant (ASCT) soon. We are hopeful but scared for this next challenge. We would appreciate your thoughts if this the best plan, other treatment alternatives for her or share your stories with your ASCT. Thank you so much.
