    I was just diagnosed this week with MM at age 54 with bone marrow biopsy showing 25% involvement so it was caught extremely early (thank goodness I get yearly physicals) I am healthy otherwise. It all started with a diagnosis of Anemia and low Iron but my PCP was on top of it and they had an answer 3 weeks later. I wish I could just go right to the Car T cell therapy instead of bombarding my body for the next 8 to 10 years with chemo drugs / CD38 inhibitors. I'm a very fit and very healthy male who has never seen a doctor for anything other then a yearly physical.... Why degrade my body and immune system with Chemo drugs? With so little involvement my Cytokine release will be minimal and very low risk for extremely high fever.

    This will cure everything. Car-t, crispr-cas9 and base editing are all game changers.
