Hi Chris

You are lucky in many ways,because of routine blood test they have caught you early plus SMM,so that’s all good news.

There is no reason why you cannot live a reasonable normal life,I would advice you to ask to join the under 50 as you will find people of your own age!!

What I will recommend is you educate yourself concerning…[Read more]

Thanks Stuart.
You learn something every day!

Hi Liz

I am not advocating going to Spain WITHOUT insurance BUT we have been to Costa del Sol many times and we did not have insurance. I remember Gills husband Stephen, when they went to France, saying that he was not going to break out in a severe case of Myeloma. Kev, like Frank knows his own body. We had been looking into going to Tenerife,…[Read more]

I tried to correct a spelling mistake a couple of weeks ago and gave up trying in the end. My whole message kept disappearing!

I still don’t like being a “Participant”!!!!

Hi David.
The new site is having a lot of teething troubles. Stuart the web master is looking into them. He has a discussion page on the off topic forum and I know he is looking into the editing issue.
I get a cough and hiccups when I take my Dex I always have. I have to be careful when I drink as it sets me off hiccuping. I sometimes seem to…[Read more]

Hiya David.
I hope your doing well with your treatments. I’m trying to catch up on everyone because it’s been difficult to get onto the forums lately.
The regime I’m on now is Pomalidomide for 21 days then 7 days off. With Dex taken on days 1,8,15&22. I have to go in for blood tests every week for 8 weeks to make sure I’m coping with the Pom and…[Read more]

Hi All.
Thanks for all your good wishes.
I’ve finished my first week of Pomalidomide and yet have no complaints – well except for the usual Dex effect! My bloods were ok Friday but it’s too early to start counting my chickens yet.
It’s strange even though Revlimid had run it’s course I have been feeling the best I have these past 8 months since…[Read more]

Liz that should be Kev. New site at the moment doesn’t alllow you to correct mistakes

Jean

Hi Liz

Before Frank starts treatment we insured with Columbus and after treatment we took out a yearly policy with All Clear. I hope you can get sorted as we feel Bret when we get away

Best to you and Kecia
Love Jean x

Hi Andy and Steph
Well you both know how i feel for you two but am sure it wont be long before you are coasting alone and waving to me as you pass Sunny Scunny on many of your jaunts away, I also know you both will stay strong and fight this reroute that has been thrown your way.

Love to you both

Jean

Stuart same with this post. Last line missing

Sorry Stuart but site mis-behaving again. I posted to Sarah on newcomers. When I posted I went into post to fix errors. Only half post was there and when I clicked on it – it highlighted itself and disappeared. When I reopened it half the post was back. Tried a few times with the same result

Sorry Sarah site playing up again or my IPad is. Part of the post was missing and wouldn’t let me correct my mistakes. But anyway I wish you and M the very best
Love Jean x

Hi Sarah

Frank had his SRCT in Belfast City Hospital in March. He was also told of all the same things not to eat. Just like a pregnant woman’s diet. I was not allowed to bring him packaged sandwich from the hospital shop. The thing he missed the most was farmhouse pate. Like Megan I used bacterial wipes on every surface. I drove my grand…[Read more]
