    Hi Eve
    It's good to hear yours and Slim's good news. It's given me a lift as I begin my latest attempt at getting my stubborn paraproteins to a level for a sct. I'm lucky in that I'm only 10 mins from my haematology department though if errr I mean when I go for a sct I'll have to travel to Newcastle freeman hospital which is nearly 40 miles…[Read more]

    Thanks Tom Eliz and Dai
    It did take 2 days Tom as the first bloods came in at only 19%,the man next to Slim came in with88%,the first day they got 1.9,so Slim injected him self at 7pm and 7am,that seem to do the trick.4.02 overall .They rang up the same night each time to let us know.which I though was very thoughtful of them.
