So I just heard from my oncologist and my kappa light chains went up another 20+ points. My ratio( between kappa and Lambda went up over 2 points). So he’s going to set up my first shot the first week of October. I’m assuming the same as before 3 weeks on one week off.
The sooner we start the sooner we’ll know if Velcade is going to work this time. If not it would be on to the next regiment of treatment which is Darzalex.

I've been married for nearly 20 years to a wonderful husband and I'm a mom to three great kids ages 17, 16 and 14. Oh, and I just happen to have cancer. Multiple Myeloma is a cancer of the blood that is currently incurable but IS considered highly treatable! My goal is to make people laugh, cry or feel a little less alone whether you are a mom, cancer patient or BOTH!

Thanks so much for the encouragement. It is nice to have ‘kindred souls’ out there.
Good Luck! Let’s kick those high numbers to the curb!
I’m hoping I get some response after the first round which will be 4 weeks.
Thinking of you and hoping the treatment works for you.
Well, it certainly isn’t unexpected. There are many new Myeloma treatments so I’m not too concerned.
Sending good vibes your way.
Speedy recovery chris
