Thanks for the reply. I did have a stem cell transplant last fall and am in a good state of remission. The denial letter from the FAA that I got back stated it was because of "Multiple Myeloma treated with Ninlaro". I knew the two main medications used to treat MM, Revlimid & Velcade, were on AMAS's unapproved list but was hoping Ninlaro would be okay. I'm just on a low dose for maintenance. I guess if the FAA denies the appeal I'll have to decide to either go off the medication or try to find something that the FAA will approve. It would be great to find someone who has been successful dealing with this.
