Dr. Sun Kara did not appear to respect my decisions to decline a bone marrow transplant. I choose drug treatment therapy when my multiple myeloma returns, which seemed to be at odds with his recommendation for my treatment plan. He seemed to push bone marrow transplant emphatically rather than informing me about all of the options. There was no discussion of the latest/new medications/chemotherapy drugs to treat multiple myeloma. This makes me question whether or not Dr. Sunkara will offer me the latest and newest drug treatment when my Multiple Myeloma returns. |
