Hi Carol and everyone

My mum is on revlimid. She's just started her 3rd cycle. Doctors are please with her progress and are estimating 6 cycles.
Reading your posts have made me feel so encouraged.
Everytime she has a consultant visit I feel sick to my stomach with worry but reading about your progress has taken that away.

Thank you x

Hi Roger

I do think it is much harder for those around us who care about us than it is for the patient her/himself. I hope you know that you can also access support from the specialist nurses, MacMillan and Myeloma UK as her son.

Please do try not to worry – no use you being sick too!

Could you maybe go with her to the consultation? I've found mine not too worrying, but I can't say how my friend found them – she accompanied me each time. She's quite a worrier too. We both found them a good source of information and an opportunity to ask questions, which if left unanswered could mean more worrying. DO ASK ANYTHING!

Best wishes for you and your mum.
