New here, was diagnosed with multiple myeloma 18 months ago, wanting to know how I can get transfered from the hospital I'm being treated at now to LGI . Already asked my GP no help so that's not a option. Any advice or place to point me to would be appreciated..
Hi Suby and welcome to this corner of the Community although I am always sorry to see folks joining us. I am Mike and I help out around our various Blood Cancer groups.
I don’t have Myeloma but I was diagnosed back in 1999 with a rare, incurable type of NHL Stage 4a so although my Blood Cancer ‘type’ is different I understand the challenges of the journey well.
