May 20, 2014.. Today, I did not find out the information I thought I would. I had the tests done early in the day and then went to the doctor appointment. He had not received the results of the myeloma tests that were collected this morning. (They drew a total of 14 vials of blood for the lab tests.) Therefore, he was not able to determine if the Mekinist was making a difference in the myeloma so he had to reschedule another appointment at a later time. I wish they had scheduled me for the lab tests a couple of days earlier so he would have had the results. I am now scheduled for blood work again early Thursday morning (I am wondering what can change in my blood in two days) and then see the doctor for him to determine the new path forward. He explained several options with one of them being a stem cell transplant. He seemed to doubt the Mekinist would make a significant difference unless it was combined with some other drug.
