All three support groups hold free meetings for multiple myeloma patients and their families, with informal discussions and questions. Occasionally there are invited speakers to provide information about various topics relating to myeloma. You and your family and other caregivers are invited; come to any location or all of them.
At the most-recent Minneapolis meeting, members discussed treatment protocols, doctors, stem-cell transplants, treatment of side effects, complementary and integrative treatments, and much more. These discussions are quite positive and empowering, especially for people who otherwise get their information only from their doctor.
