Hi Keith
You have been through the wars,while Slim and I have been enjoying ourselves,correct that I enjoyed myself.

Hi Les
Nice to hear from you and you have come to the right place,this lot on here will soon cheer you up.

My advice is take one day at a time,what seems awful at this moment,will not seem so bad in the future,but you are going to feel worse before you feel better.

First have you applied for a blue badge,or any money like attendance…[Read more]

Hi Jacqui
I would like to make a comment about sugar in general concerning MM.
I know Slim has never taken sweeteners but enjoys white sugar in his tea,which I consider is bad.
During his treatment he developed a taste for puddings after dinner,normally he would not dream of eating anything sweet,he would drink wine with all its sugar.Now he…[Read more]

Hi,
My name is Eve I am a carer.Welcome to the site.
You ask questions,and expect answers with very little information for anyone to give an answer.

From what you are saying the person concerned had severe bone damage which in it,s self brings it,s own problems,as you have an aunt who had Myeloma and is still alive,she should be your first…[Read more]

Hi Jaqui,

my story is try much akin to Helens re: diet etcetera. There was a sugar shortage back in the late seventies and many people switched to sweeteners which caused a massive demand and supply from companies. Many of them were terrible, with very bitter aftertastes but one or two, Canderel I recall as being amongst the best, produced…[Read more]

Hi you all, well well spotted that Jean you ought to play for Scunthorpe United Lol. yes some psts have had me think and for that reason I have left them for a bit 🙁 sad I know but I dont want to feed sicko's anywhere let alone on here.
Now we all know how/where to report it to well done the Tech folks x

Great news David,

This puts you and your situation in a much better light than a week or so ago.

I know that you will cope with whatever it takes to beat this… so 'Vasbyte' and the best of British.:-)

Dai.

Hi Andy,

I hope you get some definite direction from your next visit to the Prof. You are young and fit so perhaps the Allo might be a good option for you… Either that or a decent remission/plateau from your frontline might see you in a much better light for an auto by the time MM starts bothering you.

In the meantime enjoy life and walks…[Read more]

I hate to voice the possibility but I have had my suspicions about a couple of posts from concerned 'friends' or 'relatives' regarding the onset of MM but then we never hear from them again… I don't know why but something about the posts made me suspicious or a tad uncomfortable… I truly hope I'm wrong but there are some sad people out…[Read more]

Hi Pat

Your more than welcome and I hope all goes well today and things are soon sorted

Keep well
