Welcome to the journey,We are all ahead of you on this journey,I am a carer to my husband.Some times I loose the plot,I will not say…[Read more]

Hi Vicki

Sorry to hear that your Dad has MM, honest 60 aint that old (well i hope not as am running towards 56:-D

I also was on CDT prior to a "Succesfull" transplant.

I also had the transplant in Castle Hill and agree with you the treatment and help you get from them is second to none, I am now back in Scunthorpe being looked after in…[Read more]

Good luck with the Hip (H)op for Gordon Sarah. It is a double whammy but if he has Bridget's good fortune it could be a blessing in disguise (they do have some good disguises tho.:-)

Dai.

Thanks Sarah,

The dex does help (Dex free day today) but this has been my worst week for being wiped-out so far). Still, one more V tomorrow and then the free week to get me to the end of Cycle 2. I am hoping for some interim results then… and if it is proving to be working then bring it on – and I'll drag my sorry a**** through as many…[Read more]

Hi John,

I too am a guitarist (see the Off Topic for some of my songs) and I dread my current Velcade treatment giving me PN in my hands – playing and singing keeps me sane. Of course only the medics can ease your fears but by the way you describe you condition (especially how it eases after use) it sounds suspiciously like tendonitis to…[Read more]

I had bad back problems and to be fair to the Welsh side they soon sorted that…[Read more]

Hi Vicki welcome you have come to the right place for answers and support on here they are a great bunch!! Great to hear your dad is getting good care it always helps Try and take things one step at a time its such a lot to take in The life expectancy figures are very general and often a bit cautious 60 , isnt old and with all the new treaments…[Read more]

Hi Gill,

I am sorry that Stephen is having it so rough this time… what current treatment is he receiving for his [b]ilnesses[/b]. I presume he is in for his 2nd SCT so I hope that he at least matches the last remission. Please keep in touch, I'm rooting and tooting for the both of you big time.

Much love xxx

Dai.

Hi Sarah tell him from me its really not bad easiest op I ever had and back on your feet in no time !!!xx
