Who Are Suitable for a Stem Cell Transplant?
Stem cell transplants can be handled better in young people, those who have not gone through much treatment, and those who are in the early cancer stages. Therefore, there may be age limits. This would not be particular helpful to those with multiple myeloma as the average age at diagnosis is 65 years old. People with some major conditions should avoid stem cell transplants. These may include heart issues, kidney disease, and lung problems. Before making a decision, your doctor needs to conduct several tests to see whether stem cell transplants are suitable for your condition. [4]
