I,had a Allogenic Transplant dec-2000.It was worth the risk in my case.I had over 70% of myeloma in my body so I had no choice.As of today im doing very well.The recovery after is very hard.My immune sysytem was wiped out completely so it wouldnt go after my new bone-marrow.I truly belive its worth the risk because you have a chance to live again.I have graft versus host disease as a result.Mine is the mild form as of today.I Wish you the best and may gods peace and comfort be with you.heaven.

Hello,

You may want to consider reviewing the stem cell and bone marrow transplant discussion board. You can also post your question there as many on this board have had a similar experience.

I hope this information has been helpful.

Take care and be well,

I would like to hear from people that have survived this transplant. Is it worth going through? Is it a tough road? I know without trying it is a certain death sentence.
