My mom died from Multiple Myeloma when I was 17. 3 years later it still hurts me more than anything. I miss her more than anything in this world. I can’t even begin to describe how much I hate this disease. She was the most beautiful person I’ll ever know. Thank you for this video, and thank you for helping me to understand this disease. It was hard knowing there was nothing I could do to help her. Man it hurts thinking back. Thanks again for the video man.

My mum died two weeks ago of multiple myeloma. I understand how you feel. Am still grieving because in her last days, she was helpless. I had never seen my mum in such a helpless state! And like you, there was nothing much I could do. It was very painful.

@@chrisomoding9890 My father died from it after just 2 years back in 1996--To lower risk of getting it, eat Vit C fruits and vegetables, including Spinach, and Tomato Sauce and carrots and apples---Avoid Ice cream, Butter, pudding, honey, aspartame, syrup, jelly, fried foods

[@Whatt787]

My father too--Having a first degree relative increases risk of you and i getting it, but still low chance--Preventive measures dietary are Vit C fruits and vegetables and apples, cooked tomatoes, carrots and spinach--Avoid Ice cream, Butter, Pudding, honey syrup, jelly, fried foods once you turn 40

Love the detailed video. Using it on my page to bring awareness to different cancers every month. Will post the link to this video. Sometimes you have to look for the information cause ppl either dunno where to look and don't at all. Thank you.

You are the best. We want more lectures on various important tropics.

Thank you! Plenty more to come 😊

Hi, very good job. I went directly to your profile to check if you had those treatment options (immunomodulatory, proteasom inhibitors etc) explained in other videos. That´ll be great. What program you use for the animations?

[@glksivakaran]

Thank you so much from 🇱🇰

Thank you so much for clearly explaining this disease that my husband has recently been diagnosed with. He is being treated with daratumumab, dexamethasone and lenalidomide, which you mention. Thank you♥️

You're very welcome. Best of luck to you both 🙂

Multiple Myeloma. Fast production of plasma cells. If not birth caused Chromosome problem to Genetic translation, the Cell cycle specifics to phosphorylation protein regulation, Cytoskeleton Actin cell signalling in relation to protein and genes and both ways, regulation kinases problem or structural amino acid build up modulation if ever, in bone marrow inflammatory mediators autoantibodies and the signals to derrangements. Can the hypothalamus tweak via Cerebral Cortex higher brain control and genes axis as general body control with neuromodulation not as passive but active neuromodulation in sync with enzymes specifics.

I've recently come across your channel. I graduated veterinary faculty and I'm studying medicine and still working as a vet. Your videos are extremely helpful and one of the best of this kind on youtube. It's a pleasure to watch them and they're full of new information. i hope you'll carry on with internal medicine videos. Keep up the good work!

[@RhesusMedicine]

Thank you so much for your feedback. Impressive that you're managing to work as a vet and study medicine, the former I wouldn't know about but the latter certainly isn't easy. Plenty more internal medicine videos to come. Best of luck! 😁

[@BaldEagleVince1]

Thanks for the clear explanation. I have just been diagnosed with multiple myeloma this week so I am still processing the details of my condition and potential prognosis. I have a large growth on my skull 💀 which has been the 1st indication of the disease, which has not yet been determined by Stage yet. I am to have a biopsy this week so I will find out more after that. We shall see 👀 how it goes...🙏

Please offer explanation of how MM causes paralysis. You only briefly mentioned spinal lesions and radiculopathy.

[@montazaraldujeili2475]

can you make videos about lymphoma and leukemia please

[@RhesusMedicine]

They're planned 😎

[@chellesswell974]

Greetings all. I am currently in the MGUS Phase. I had a cleat pet scan back in December, but I've been having consistent pain in my back and legs recently. I'm wondering has anyone had the experience of being diagnosed with smoldering MM or MM without any evidence of lesions. As always, any input or insight is greatly appreciated. Be blessed and well. Thank you!

[@Ulick-N-Owen]

U are awesome 🔥

Constant low hemoglobin is an early sign. If your hemoglobin is well below 14. Mine is from 9.8 to 10.2. My doctor is taking this very overly lightly and has become constantly unconcerned being more preoccupied with COVID! I'M REALLY PISSED!!!

This guy’s pronunciations are great, except i found it funny how weird he pronounced the words, “skeletal” and “status”. Other than that, great teaching on the subject.
