Hello all
Thank for your kind welcome. Even as a beginner this forum makes it clear how much we all share similar experiences as we confront myeloma as well as the illness itself and the related issues of side-effects and "bits dropping off" as a consequence of it. I am sure that I will be able to learn from the experience of others and I hope, make some small contribution myself.
Best wishes to all,
Andy

Hi Sharon,
I'm new to this forum but just under a month ago I went to a hospital appointment with back pain and in the course of four hours had been diagnosed with myeloma, given dex, sampled for bone & bone marrow, MRI'd and admitted on bed rest, next day the radiotherapy began. It all came as something of a shock. They kept me in for three days and I had the last three R/Ts as an outpatient. The pain subsided over a week or so and the numbness in my legs seems to have not got any worse. Just the chemo to get my head round now. Hope you get home soon and it stops hurting. My Oramorph has mostly been in the fridge for the last couple of weeks. Hope its the same for you.
Andy
