Hello, My partner has Myeloma. He has had 2 transplants and he has now refracted. Revlomid has brought the paraprotein level down to 16, but his platelets, white blood cells and haemoglobin are all regressing downwards. Yesterday he had a bone marrow biopsy and 3 transfusions of platelets etc. Could you tell us honestly what the next few months should typically hold?
Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Prognosis of multiple myeloma is very poor despite treatment. Pancytopenia, various infection, bleeding, bone involvement and fracture, kidney involvement and chronic renal failure are the complications. Life expectancy is not good. Bone marrow transplantation is helpful in some cases. Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/ Chat Doctor. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
