You Min are part of my "Online" Family and your pain is my pain, your joys will be my joys I understand…[Read more]

Hi Nadine and welcome ,sorry I seem to have missed your original post. It sounds as if you and your mum are coping well with getting to grips with this myeloma lark. It struck me when you said you are being strong for your mum that perhaps she is doing exactly the same to protect you and this could be making it difficult to talk But try not to…[Read more]

Hi
MySuch a relief to hear there are others out there. Took my grandchildren shopping with me today as their teachers had closed the school for a training day. My four year old little grandson spent the first 10 minutes trying to negotiate how many items I could buy before we went to McDonalds and when I wouldnt play that game tried to negotiate…[Read more]

Hi Nadine and welcome
Hope this helps. I had my STC in Feb of this year and although I can´t say recovery was as quick as I would have liked I am now in remission so I can´t ask for more.
I do get very tired but on the other hand that could be because I look after three horses every day, do all the housework and cooking and shopping, laundry e…[Read more]

Hi Jean I wondered what happened to that post!! I was writing about how exhausted the radiotherapy has made me feel and then I dont know what happened!! But I can honestly say I have never felt so tired in my lifeLast year they told me tiredness could be a side-effect of the RT but I didnt feel any different It may be because I still have these…[Read more]

I am glad your holiday felt right and it must have been such a comfort for your mum that you were with her Both your parents must be very proud to have such lovely caring daughters, you are a credit to them Take care and please pass on my best wishes to your mum love Bridget xx

Hi Susannah wow you have certainly been kept busy!! I am glad to hear both Michael and your daughter are feeling better though but now is the time for you to look after yourself! Go and treat yourself to some pampering you deserve it! I will be starting Bendamuste in the next couple of weeks it was a choice between that and a course of heavy duty…[Read more]

Hi All,

What a strange unconnected day I have had. In for the last infusion of Velcade Cycle 6 – wearing one insulated glove on my left hand as I drove in to keep it nice and warm… which encourages the veins to rise… Janet made me.

The day-case unit was very, very quiet… never seen it so… we even got a parking spot opposite the…[Read more]

Hi Amelie
Sorry to reply so late but I have only just read this. I had my SCT in Feb of this year and yes, I am FED UP with my itchy back and my medical team see to think it´s to be accepted – just the result of the Melphalan and resulting very dry skin.
However, I´m going to investigate eosinophilic folliculitis further and see if I can get s…[Read more]

Hi Paul and welcome
I am on the Myeloma 11 trial with Revlimid. Hope this helps – I had my stem cell transplant in February and although I haven´t found recovery a swift process (I´m a horse rider and sailing kind of person so I´m sure you understand my lack of pacience!) my paraprotien level is now 00. Basically this means I am officially in…[Read more]

My Dear Min,

Like Gill's wishes for Stephen I would like to think that I could have a 10 year tenancy with MM… I was 54 and 4 months when I was diagnosed with cancer, I'll be 58 on Xmas Eve… which would make me 64 when the renewal comes up… I'll settle for 62… I've set my sights on 60 in the first instance.

My Kappa Light Chains were…[Read more]
