    Hi Geri

    we all try to be brave on the surface but inside I dont always feel it, we have to fight this thing all the way never give in. I have had MM for three yearss went into hospital with pnuemonia and renal failure and as it turned out MM what a shock!! my kidneys are still only 20/25% so I chose not to have a Stem cell as it could of killed…[Read more]

  • Hi Dai sorry I havent got round to answering you yet Revlimid , Velcade and Bendamustine failed to make any impact over periods of more than 3 months Each time a new tumour developed the latest is not the most painfulbut seems to have become very large in a short space of time so a bit scary especially the risk of paralysis I will certainly enjoy…[Read more]

  • Hi Bridget,

    Thanks for replying. I asked in your thread exactly what treatments you have had… I was wondering how you fared on Revlimid… but you have said that it didn't work for you – did they give a reason, or did it become obvious through tumours, new disease etc.

    I hope that you find a suitable treatment soon… in the meantime…[Read more]

  • Hi Dai it is such a nuisance when you cant get the results when you need them! Like you I used to be very responsive to blood tests until after my first relapse , since then I have become a non-secretor This is likely to excludeme from some trials as they will be unable to measure performance It is so frustrating so I know how you feel although…[Read more]

  • I attended my consultation yesterday to find out that my second 24 hour urine test still failed to show sufficient myeloma in my urine… the last qualifier I need to carry on with my trial audition. 🙁

    I have filled in all the paperwork and my consultant will rush me through the rest of the qualifiers (Cardiac/full body scan/ bloods etc.) as…[Read more]

    Hi Bridget,

    That is rough, tough news but at least they are looking at and discussing options. First step is the surgeon… hopefully he can get to the tumour and take it out… or at least enough of it to allow the radiographer a bit more leeway. If it is down to the radiographer then so be it. I appreciate the problem but these…[Read more]

  • Hi Jean I got a bad fit of the giggles reading your post I could just picture it!! The other thing that struck me is how innocent people were in the fifties, so different from now Roll on Sunday evening ! love Bridget x

  • Hi everyone I have been watching Call the Midwife on BBC1, Sunday evenings and its brilliant mainly because it brought back so many childhood memories. I am amazed how much the way we live has changed in such a relatively short time , its set in 1957. I bought the books which are memoirs written by Jennifer Worth who was a nurse for over 20 years…[Read more]

    Thankyou John, David and Min how good it is to have friends who care I am as calm as can be really Had to tell the kids in a very matter of fact way so that they dont panic which helps me get a grip As you say Min tomorrow is another day and there is no choice but to get on with it! Mind you there might be a bit of whinging after 4 days of the…[Read more]

    14 lyrics by the 29th February – different genres depending on how I feel – hopefully I will find melodies and I will record (and post here) any that are completed.

    If I end up with 14 lyrics, 7 melodies and 4 finished (recorded) versions I will be happy… with completion of others to follow.

    Here is the first lyric… a little country…[Read more]
