Doctors told Jana she was losing blood from somewhere, so she underwent several blood transfusions. Her kidneys were shutting down. For two weeks, doctors wondered what was going on. Doctor Ed Muir, an oncologist with the Jones clinic, was the doctor who finally diagnosis her.
"He came in and told us I had multiple myeloma."
The cancer was at stage 3, which means the disease was already advanced. To make matters worse, she had kidney dysfunction, which required dialysis. She started chemotherapy the next day.
"My cancer is aggressive so they have to treat it aggressively, and there have been some pretty bad days."
At one point, she was receiving 3 different chemotherapy treatments at one time.
