i am a new member , but only because i didn't know of this group. i have been
diagnosed with multiple myeloma last june . i had radiation and was supposed to
have the stem cell surgery in sept/o8. however i ended up with a broken leg ( i
had a cracked lesion in my left femur . and my family doctor insisted i didn't
have cancer in my femur . then when he was notified about the cracked lesion he
did not tell me and 4 days after , i moved with a bit of a twist from a chair to
a walker)and it snapped the leg right across )) all this was to explain how i
ended up with the break , not what an idiot my family doctor is lol. since the
leg has healed i have been having trouble walking due to problems with the other
leg , so as i should be as healthy as possible and mobile the stem cell surgery
is still on hold .
now the reason i am writing is i wish to know from anyone who has had stem
cell surgery and how succesful it might or might not be. also is it even
recommended !!! i think the longer i have been waiting the more i think and
quite possibly i am just thinking to much and becoming paranoid . i hope so lol
. any contributions are appreciated ! my email is sailorkambri@... or
answer me here .
thsnk you
