Beth's Cancer Story: From Diagnosis to Thriving | The Patient Story

Beth was just 29 years old and the mother of two young kids when she was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. She describes how she got through first-line treatment of radiation, chemotherapy, and a successful stem cell transplant. For 12 years, Beth lived her life with no sign of myeloma. When her pain returned, she didn’t think much of it after a doctor concluded it was unrelated to the myeloma. But just a couple years later, an oncologist said the myeloma was back – the cancer had relapsed. Beth dives into her over-two-decade long myeloma experience, including how the myeloma became triple-refractory (didn’t respond anymore to the usual drugs), the new drugs that worked and didn’t work, and how she has managed to live her fullest life with the disease. Thank you, Beth, for sharing your incredible story with us! Her full story and transcripts: https://www.thepatientstory.com/cance...
