My Cancer Diagnosis Came Out of Nowhere! - Tim | Multiple Myeloma | The Patient Story

Video Description

Tim's cancer diagnosis came out of nowhere. When he started to have stomach pain though, Tim went to the emergency room. They discovered large gallstones that led to a severe gallbladder infection. While they were testing Tim to see what might be wrong with him, they suspected he also had multiple myeloma. This came as a shock to Tim as he felt asymptomatic aside from the stomach pain. A bone marrow biopsy confirmed Tim's diagnosis, and he started treatment right away. In this cancer vlog, Tim describes the shock of his cancer diagnosis, the details of his stem cell transplant, and how he is living his life with multiple myeloma. #cancerstories #cancerpatient #cancersurvivor #patientstories #thepatientstory #multiplemyeloma #mmsm #stemcelltransplant #chemotherapy #chemotherapysideeffects The Patient Story: The Patient Story is led by a dedicated team of medical, editorial, and video experts, committed to authentically portraying the cancer patient experience.
