I have noticed a thickening of the skin on my face and ears. Not sure what it is from.

There’s no thickening or anything like that. I just don’t get sunburn 🤷🏻‍♀️ Sandy I’m so sorry you and the others are suffering with this. This disease really stinks!

I was warned by my oncologist to always wear sunscreen and to stay out of the sun as skin cancer is one of the secondary cancers related to multiple myeloma and AL Amyloidosis
