Welcome to the San Francisco Bay Area Multiple Myeloma Support Group website.

Our group of myeloma patients and caregivers meets the 3rd Saturday of every month from 10am – 1pm. Typically 30-50 folks attend these monthly meetings to share their myeloma experiences and ask questions.

From newly diagnosed patients to several patients diagnosed more than 10 years ago, we share what we know with each other so that we can all be educated as much as possible about myeloma diagnosis, symptoms, markers, treatments, side-effects, clinical trials, quality of life, and many other topics of interest including invited speakers on occasion. Most of all, we believe that myeloma should be not be treated as a death sentence but rather as a disease to be managed…and education & support are key.  From time to time we invite speakers who are experts in various areas such as oncologists, nutritionists, naturopathic physicians, integrative/alternative specialists, etc.  See Meeting Dates and monthly meeting mailers/emails for information on speakers.
