My husband was diagnosed with MM in January 2019. He underwent 4 cycles of VTD. At the end of these his paraproteins were <2. We went into the SCT in early July with much optimism. He found it extremely tough! Disappointingly when he was tested in September his paraproteins were actually 2, rising to 3 in November and 4 at the end of December. Next test in March. (The specialist has discussed the potential for DVD treatment at some future date.) He hasn’t been overly well since the transplant, suffering with a dreadful productive cough since October and now a 3 week spell of diarrhoea, which the doctors feel could be as a result of the multiple courses of antibiotics for the cough ~ which is still present! He is now taking some ‘off the shelf’ expensive probiotics, along with high grade Manuka honey. Do any of you have any recommendations as to how he can manage his current symptoms? Thank you.
