Hello to everyone,
I’m a 53 y/o male who was diagnosed with an MGUS about 18 months ago, after routine blood tests. I’ve since been having regular blood tests and visits to see my consultant.
In August of this year, I started having rib and back pain and a few infections that were difficult to shift. After several tests, it seems things have progressed and I was diagnosed with Myeloma on the 24th October, so relatively recently and it’s all been a bit of a whirl!
I start my induction treatment on 14th November. I’m naturally a little apprehensive as I’m not entirely sure what to expect, but the consultant and nursing team have been fantastic so far. I’ve also signed up to the RADAR trial.
I’ve been lurking on the forum for a while, but thought I’d better sign up and say hello, as I’m sure I’ll have questions in time – although I’ve found lots of helpful information here so far, so a big thank you to all that post here.
I look forward to being able to contribute to the forum as I progess through my journey.
R.
