Hello Multiple Myeloma Members! I'm still getting myself used to this new site and all its quirks, good and bad. I have enabled some new features on the Myeloma, Let's Talk! Group site. You can now blog here directly if you would like. I have also made a few of the "old timers" Managers, like on our old group site, so that I'm not the only one in charge of the group and approving membership. I noticed the other day, someone asked to join and when I looked at their profile, there was none except that they had joined every group on this site, so I disapproved them.
So WELCOME! Here we are on the new merged site and a larger social group with merging of WhatNow? and Share. I hope that we can use this group to talk about our process, our treatment, our recovery, and the new treatment protocols coming down the pike. Those of us who have been doing this a while will do everything we can to help you through your journey and share our experiences in order to help you make the decision that is right for you.
Multiple Myeloma is a very "fluid" disease right now in terms of treatment options. I encourage you to utilize the links we have put up to get some valid information in your search for what to do now.
But know this, it is no longer a death sentence, it is not your fault that you were diagnosed with MM, people are living longer and longer and learning to LIVE with Myeloma. Do not despair.
Lori (Habubrat)
