Boyfriend of multiple myeloma Patient

by royjulius on Sun May 05, 2013 11:57 am

Hi all. I am the boyfriend of a multiple myeloma patient. Her name is Alma, and she was diagnosed 6 years ago. For the last 2 years she has refused treatments, but I am always on the lookout for new developements. Anyway, I will be hanging around this site and sharing info with you guys/gals. That's all I'm going to write until I see if this post was successful...(the first draft wasn't)

Roy, Some good info on here and also on the Mayo Clinic site. Refusing treatment for two years would seem to me to indicate she must not have a higher risk Myeloma or she would be seriously ill by now and have numerous bone lesions I would think. You'd have to tell us more about the specifics of her disease and why she refuses treatment? How old is she? Jerry.
