Hi Everyone

This is my first post after joining since i found out on weds that my 76 year old mum has myeloma
think im still in shock so not sure what else to say at the moment

I think i need to found out as much info as possible initially, this site looks like it can help alot

My mum lives in warwickshire and there isnt a local support group at the moment, im hoping that they maybe some users on here in the local area who may consider meeting up in the near future

Hi Helen

Pleased you are finding the info Good for you all:-D and its great to hear about others that are raising money for the dreaded MM:-(

As for the Stem Cell transplant:: oh what can I say?? well to be honest I feel that is has been well worth the off days that I had during my "Recovery" and to be fair it was (cept the growth injection's)Pain free8-)

Yes its not a walk in the park but no pain just a feeling of wanting to be sick (but i never was?) but I was given anti sicknes pills, none of us go through the treatment and run the same way, but to you and your Mum it is well worth it 8-).

I hope they (and they will) get your Mum's pain under control and make the days better.

And as for a Sunday you can come on here anyday any time and ask anything evn just to have a Rant and a moan (trust me its good for you) so dont you worry.
Good Luck for Wed but dont forget never wait for a date to see a Dr if your Mum is not right, am sure you were given contact Numbers??

Love
Tom "Onwards and Upwards" xx

Hi Sarah, My brother and I found it very helpful and supportive when we attended an info day which happened to take place just after our father was diagnosed. I don't know if you live near to one but if you can get to one they are so helpful… Hope this helps and good luck…
