Re: Can kidneys improved drastically with treatment?
Keri (Koalad) originally posted an introduction in this discussion thread, describing how she has recovered after experiencing complete kidney failure in 2008 -- the condition that led to her multiple myeloma diagnosis.
We thought, however, that the posting might fit better in the "Member Introductions / Personal Stories" section of the forum, so we've moved it there. However, it is definitely relevant to this discussion as well, so those who are interested can read the posting at this link:
