Can a myeloma survivor have plastic surgery?

March 4, 2020
Asked By:Gottoloveme2017 in Butler, PA

I was diagnosed with myeloma. I had chemotherapy in 2013 & 2015. I have not had any more problems since (other than I gained so much weight during the illness) I am seeking to have TT, BBL, and 360 Lipo. I cannot find any cases of survivors having plastic surgery other than mastectomy. Is plastic surgery not an option for me? I have survived the worst of everything and was stripped of the opportunity to have kids due to the myeloma treatment at 35. I am healthy & all of my labs are normal now.
