Hey guys. I'm a former bber. I haven't formally introduced myself yet but I needed somewhere to vent so here I am. My name is joffree and my profile picture is of me. Anyway. I hate to make my first post such a negative one but I needed somewhere to get this off my chest. So here we go.
This morning I found out that my grandma has myeloma and amyloidosis of the lungs. It's stage 3. She's been having health issues for over a year now and her doctors neglected to diagnose her. They kept saying she had pneumonia. She switched doctors and they've officially diagnosed her with cancer. 😔 He's saying his success rate with his patients in her condition is 60-70 percent. But how is that so when she's Stage 3? I'm confused. I'm upset. I'm angry. I'm sad. My grandmother is like a second mother to me. My mom was a single mother and worked her ass off to take care of me financially therefor my grandmother took care of me while she worked. She's such a strong, extremely active and fit woman. And to here this news... it's devastating. I guess that's all I wanted to say. I know there's many users on this app. Does anyone have any knowledge on this form of cancer? If so, could you please enlighten me? The only cancer that people have had in my family is skin cancer so I know nothing about it really. Also, if you've read all of this, thank you for doing so. I truly appreciate it.

I'm so sorry this is happening to you. I lost my aunt a few years ago because her doctor also neglected my aunts complaints for over a year. Even when she made the doc run test she told my aunt everything was normal when her oncologist later told us that there were red flags in some of the results of her test. She left behind 3 young sons and her husband. That's why up to this date I have no faith in Doctor's. I really hope things work out for your grandma. ❤️

@tardis141583, I didn't know there was five stages. I always thought there was four. Interesting. But I'm so sorry for your loss. 😔 Thank you for the well wishes. ❤️

Most cancers have five stages, so a stage 3 that is a pretty accurate percentage. Im sorry this has happened to you we lost my grandmother sept 14 because of a hospital mistake, unfortunately my mom and her siblings couldnt find a lawyer that would touch the case. Positive thoughts and vibes being sent your way

All of the signs were there I guess and they neglected to do anything. They made it seem like there was nothing to be worried about. I do know this type of cancer can cause nodules on the organs and they knew she had a growth on one of her lungs. They said it wasn't concerning as it was so small and didn't watch after it any further. Now it's the size of a golfball and it's in a place where it cannot be removed without removing part of her lung assuming that's what was causing them to think it was just pneumonia. It's also draining into her lung. Her previous doctor also did blood tests and the signs were there but they ignored them. My mom is hiring an attorney but that won't erase the damage that's been done. 😔
