Crap. Just to keep you updated... |

My last test came back positive for multiple myeloma. I'm having a bone marrow biopsy next week to see what stage it is. This sucks. Hard.

Duke Medical Center (near Raleigh, NC) has a cutting edge, just approved treatment for multiple myeloma involving cleansing and transplanting your own bone marrow. My bro-in-law met a whole waiting room full of people there who had had the treatment and survived for the last nine years and were still going strong. I know this is hugely scary, but you will have lots of people pulling for you, ginbarn. You are loved. :hug:

My f-i-l has survived his bladder cancer for 7 years now, whipping it into remission five times. His daughter, my sis-in-law, last year was diagnosed with lymphoma. She's also kicked its ass right out of her body. Remission; no trace at the molecular level.
All of DU is ready to fight this with you, and you also have the power of two warriors in my family who will lend a hand whenever you need it.

I'm just checking in after a long night of a public hearing before Elections Committee at the capitol.
Oh sweetie I am so sorry. I hope that it's at an early stage and you'll kick this thing in the ass. It does suck hard. I hate damn cancer! Just know that you are loved and you have a good support system right here on DU. You stay positive and use all our positive healing thoughts and prayers to get through this thing.
Keep us posted. :grouphug:
