I too am glad that your Consultant has come up with something after your disappointment about the Trial. I hope and pray that the Velcade and Dex will have a synergy that will work for you.
Hello Mavis
Thank you
I too was surprised! I had been told it was slow to grow and so would be a few months/ years before needing more treatment. I know my bmb has been the subject of much discussion with my consultant and his colleagues and the considered outcome was to start treatment now! I have a suspicion that the 'mixed' cell nature of the biopsy means that while the mm is indolent now, it could turn more aggressive. I haven't asked this question directly! I'm not sure I'm ready to hear the answer yet. I just have to trust them.
I'm still at work, I go for first Velcade on Tuesday then take things day by day!
Hope you are doing well at the minute?
Love Helen
