Hello – i am very new to this forum experience as well as learning to live with Myeloma.
I am 50 years old and was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma on 1st December. Initially, this was a huge shock for myself & my family but now we have a treatment plan in place and i am half way through Cycle 2 of D-vtd and all seems to be going well with very few side effects.
I do have one question, my consultant told me that at the end of Cycle 4 there will probably be a six week break before my stem cell harvest – can anyone let me know what happens during that 6 week break – do i have to take any meds or does all treatment stop?
Thank you in advance.
