Hi Peggy
BMB are not the nicest thing to have,but they will show what is going on with your bone marrow,because some times the kappa light chain readings do not reflect what is going on in the bone marrow.

Your BP reacts to your condition,it can go up and down if your nerves or upset,so take deep breaths and keep calm,:-P

Tom, Paul & Mavis, thank you very much.

Janet has had a stinker of a cold all week, just beginning to clear up today… so thank goodness for the anti-b's. I think I must have caught her cold as it was coming on and was unlucky enough to get the lung infection.

Dr Happy, saw me on Monday am and told me that I most likely had either…[Read more]

Hi Eve,

I hope that you are both coping as well as can be expected. Slim's SCT coming on top of Matty must be hard to bear… but while it is a rough, tough love process it is also a period of hope. Visualise Slim coming home and ready for recovery and hopefully a long remission where you can get away in the van at your pleasure… that can…[Read more]

Hey Dai am sure you didn't expect anything different, keep on keeping strong 🙂

Thank you all, your support is truly appreciated. 🙂

Janet brought in my Dex yesterday but a nurse spotted them and locked them away until the pharmacist wrote them up… so I didn't get them until 4.30pm… which left me with 2 hours sleep last night.

I have just had a couple of hours and I feel a bit more human. I didn't take any…[Read more]

Welcome Rosie
Wow! you sound as if you are a real seasoned campaigner – after going through so much I can understand how you might not want to go through another STC – not much fun I do agree.

Glad to hear your coping with everything in such a brave and positive way – you must have picked up lots of information and experience along the…[Read more]

Hi Gail

Well I thought I had replied to this one?? might have gone into cyberspace?

Hi Vicky – that´s the very question I would like to know the answer to.
I have decided that because the cancer didn´t develop fully until I was 52 after my stem cell transplant in February it might take another 52 years to come back again!!!! (Well one can dream).
Please let us know if you do get an answer.
Cheers

No Problem Gail I think your very brave to be coping so well.
Take care of yourself too and try and have a little treat every couple of days – even if it´s only a chat with a girlfriend or doing your nails!
Love Carol
