Hi, I got a Kindle for Xmas and today after being on this site I thought to type in Myeloma and there are quite a few books there ,I didnt buy any but you can read a sample and the one I found interesting with regard to a guide and explanation of terms used with Myeloma was "21st Century Adult Cancer Sourcebook: Multiple Myeloma and Plasma Cell Neoplasms" I just downloaded the sample for free and it did explain a lot of terms I didn't understand before,very American I'm afraid but they do seem to know a lot about it.

Hi Eve

I have an iPad and I downloaded Kindle free from the App store. I set up an account with Amazon and get my books within seconds. They are usually cheaper than hard copy.

Jo hope things are good with you.
Best wishes

Hi All, not every one has a Kindle I know but I think you can lownload sample books on the Amazon site. It seemed to explain MM terms which I have trouble with, it took me ages before I knew what SCT ment so I found this helpful. Ted

My brother kindly passed on to me a Sony reader which works exactly the same as a Kindle but I do like the feel of a book in my hand when I am either in a waiting room or a car. But for home I use the downloadable Kindle on my laptop. I read a lot (but not as much as I used to) and I buy most of my books hard copy and Kindle from Amazon. I have purchased and read 16 Kindle books this year and about 6 hard copy. This is fine but I should be writing not reading.;-)

Ted, the info Books available to you from the front page should give you all the information you need to know about MM. They have proven invaluable to me and don't go off into scientific/medical jargon.

If you look at the 'Introduction to myeloma' and the 'Glossary' at the bottom it should supply you with a lot of what you need to know.:-)

Regards

Dai.

Thanks for that Dia just what I needed funny I never found it before. The e-books are good if you need some quick read and can be cheap and dont take up a lot of room,but like you a real book is a book EH!!;-)
