Does anybody can tell me if insurances are cooperating on paying for these cancer medicines and approximately how much these pharmaceuticals charge for them. I'm still waiting for the Clinic to get an approval from my insurance, I have Humana. My son is investigating if Laetrile fight cancer cells as many doctors say so, 500 mg. 4 times a day, but it could be dangerous?
Thank you.
Yes, they are both the same

Marlon, my regular oncologist told me I was getting a transplant very early on. They try to get our myeloma under good control before transplant. Your doctor is waiting to see how you respond to… read more
When one is diagnosed with MM, is MGUS and/or Smoldering MM always a precursor which goes undiagnosed until the full-blown MM diagnosis? Just wondering how long before my husband's MM diagnosis in March 2019 might he have had MGUS and/or Smoldering MM and no one identified it. He is of the opinion that he had it long before, since the pelvic lesions and the spine vertebrae deteriorations had advanced so far.
I was never diagnosed with MGUS. I went right to SMM then active
Hi - I developed a pain on my left side (by the rib cage & on the side) about 2 weeks ago. I went to the walk-in dr last Wednesday. They tested my urine it has a little blood & my wb count was a little elevated. They said it might a kidney stone & told me to the er for ct scan. I don’t have a kidney stone but the found lyric lesions on lumbar & thoracic vertebrae. My blood work looks good & no other unusual findings were found on the ct scan. No weight loss.

I was wondering if anyone can remember what their light… read more

So I've heard alot about bone lesions. I'm wondering if someone could tell me what the pain is like.
I have lower back pain for about a month and and today it's like my whole back hurts. It's just pain tho.
I'm not sure if it's from the MM or just pain. I'm still waiting to meet my new Dr on the 20th so I've been unmonitored for 3 months. I will have blood test this week.
I'm just wondering if anyone can tell me how the pain starts.
I have lesions in my pelvis. As long as I stay off of my feet they don't bother me. If I'm on my feet more than an hour the pain gets quite uncomfortable. I'm a biker and they flare up after about ten… read more
