Hey,

I know of 2 pilots that are back flying after multiple myeloma, and they both used the same AME. PM me and I can get you in touch with one of them…

I know this is an old thread, but could you please PM me with info regarding the pilots who got their medical back after MM. My dear Husband, an Airline Captain, was just diagnosed with it..

Blue Skies,
RadialGal

I had a stem cell transplant in 2018 and went on revlimid and 1 mg of dex daily.. I worked with Alex Wilbrink in Colorado Springs and he was able to get everything approved with the FAA. Had to have a waiver but not a big deal. Flew for two years until the revlimid quit working. Now I'm on
​​​​ brand new stuff that I'm sure the FAA would say no to.
