    I am glad to hear things are going well for you and your sister so far, Shirley! 😀

    Here's hoping your SCT will be uneventful and quickly over.

    Love

    Hi David!
    My husband was due for his annual jab the week I came out after my STC so we asked my consultant about whether I should get one too.
    She said I should not have one at this stage but to be alert for any sign of getting the flu or a temperature and contact the ward if it happened.

    Hi Kay!!

    I am sorry that you are eligible to post on our forum, but wanted to say 'Welcome' to you!!

    I am not exactly sure what 'smouldering myeloma' is as compared to what I have, but I am sure that your medical team will be doing all they can to help treat it in the best way possible.

    I was diagnosed with myeloma early this year and so far have had lots of pills then a stem cell transplant in August/September and tomorrow will be told how the procedure went (my '100 day' appointment).

    If there are any specific questions you have – just ask and I am sure someone in our MM family will have some knowledge or advice for you, or just some encouragement to help you cope.

    As well as this board there is a special group for the under 50's which you can join by posting in the Under 50's forum lower down the page.

    Wishing you all the best in your continuing treatment

    Just popping in for a flying visit to see how you are doing, David!

    Hopefully your neutrophils will soon be on the upward path and the mouth problems will improve shortly.

    Hi Amelia
    I am sorry to hear of John's problem.

    Have you read the thread in one of the other forums about itching to see if any of it applies?

    Hi David!
    I have been having monthly bisphonate (zelodrenate) drips since being diagnosed with raised IgE levels early this year and apparently will do so for the forseeable future.

    I have had no side effects from it at all. The procedure is simple and takes about 1/2 hour in total, just meaning I sit in the ward reading a book while it happens.

    I was told to make sure my dentist knew I was on bisophonates and given a leaflet for him to read. Can't remember why that was so – that 'old timers disease' kicks in now and again 😉
