My mom is currently undergoing treatment for her multiple myeloma cancer. She had two stem cell transpants last year and eventually went into remission. But this past September, Myeloma was spotted back in 90% of her bone marrow. She has returned to chemo and an aggressive treatment to bring it down.

As a result, she's had several complications that come with the treatments... right now her left arm has swollen up really large because of clotting. Now the doctors are saying they want to administer a streptakinase injection. In order to do such a procedure they have to use a dye-contrast , which we're afraid of using because of my mom's weakened kidneys due to having myeloma. What should we do? It's a tough decision to make... especially after hearing about all the risks. For one, streptakinase is a major blood thinner and the risks include bowel, brain or spinal bleeding, which could lead to a stroke. On top of that, the contrast can cause her weakened kidneys to fail. Help!

I am doing research for a friend who's child has stage IV Neuroblastoma. He is certainly undergoing chemotherapy at this time, and will have stem cell treatment in the in the near future. Nevertheless, this type of cancer has a poor long term prognosis. I am looking into every possible treatment, without harming him in ANY way.

Thanks!

A doctor found malignant tumors on my father's kidney and lymphnodes in scans and later took tissue samples. The biopsy results came back today and it turns out that he has neither renal cancer nor lymphoma and they are taking more samples to try to figure it out. What other types of cancer could this be? He has NO outward symptoms besides back pains (that's why he went in for scans... he thought it was a pinched nerve). I know that we will find out from the professionals in the next few weeks, but the waiting until then is wretched!

My sister in law is a hypochondriac and is worried that she has leukemia. I want to take her claim seriously, but she is always worried that she has some sort of serious or terminal illness. Also, she is very overweight, and I wasn't sure if it was likely that she could have leukemia and still have a healthy appetite.

If you do happen to have leukemia since it was passed down, at what age does it show? Can you get tested at any age if you have it or not? Can you get it treated and be fully healed?

My mom has non-hodgkins lymphoma and she just completed her first 6 months of treatment. She went for an appointment to get a cat-scan to see what the progress was. While waiting in the waiting room she was greeted by a financial director from the hospital and my mom was told that she was in too much debt to the hospital to get any more services.

So she was sent away.

She still has her port and they wont even flush it for her so im also concerned about that getting infected. She doesnt have any health insurance and Im not quite sure what paper work she has already filled out through different associations. Im just brain storming, looking for any ideas of people or oganizations that I might be able to contact for grants for cancer patients.

If you have been in a simular situation I am very interested in finding out what you did to get the care that you needed when you didnt the money to get it.

Thank you,
Julie

I recently went to donate blood and was told i couldnt as my blood did not meet there standards, I am not sure of the details. I then went to visit my doctor who sent me for blood tests, i got the blood report back to my house which my doctor was not happy about and it give lots of details which i was unsure about and stated that the suspect were "LY Blasts" i typed this in to google and erything that come up was to do with leukemia. My doctor has previoulsy given the wrong information my aunty telling her she was suffering from head aches she later found out she had a brain tumor. I cant help but think he has also given me the wrong information and that i do actually have leukemia. I cannot stop thinking about it, Would you reccomend me getting a second opinion.Sorry it is so long. I am 17 years old and female if this is of any relevence. Please help. Thank-you very much
