I,m very interested in clinical trials as Car-T cell immunotherapy for MM patients and also for Dendritic cell Therapy

I saw a trial in Texas that involved Tumeric injections Is anyone familiar with where that is?

I'd like to know how you made the decision to stop the MM Meds.
Was it your choice or doctor recommended - any details would be great.

At 6 weeks of induction my IgG, and IgM (immune levels) were still normal and my very high IgA had returned to normal. As they continued to with induction, for 12 weeks total, my Ig levels all went to very low. Asking about it, I was told the MM Meds were hard at work, attacking what was left of my immune system.

Now that I'm in Complete Remission and no longer taking MM Meds, I'm hopeful that my immune system might recover to normal. My Doc doesn't expect that to be the case. I asked about… read more
