Living Life with Myeloma | Beth's Multiple Myeloma Patient Story (5 of 5)
Beth was just 29 years old and the mother of two young kids when she was diagnosed with multiple myeloma. After first-line treatment of radiation, chemotherapy, and a successful stem cell transplant, she lived 12 years with no sign of myeloma. In our series, Beth shares how she relapsed and her journey to find the right treatment, while living life to the fullest.
In this segment (TIME CODES BELOW), Beth shares the impact of the myeloma on her life, including how she decided to retire from work and learning how to accept support from others. She also dives into the importance of participating in clinical trials and in sharing her story, to help heal herself and hopefully others who are looking for some connection.
Thank you for sharing your story, Beth!
