    OK I must have something very wrong here. Stephen has been having Velcade through his PICC line and has had very bad (and I mean bad) diarrhoea. His Specialist asked for a sample but was very surprised and thought it was nothing to do with the velcade. Gill (or confused from Orpington)

    Hi Lorraine

    Off load all you like. I cannot help with advice on the revlemid as husband Stephen (mm) has not yet been on it, but it looks like it could be on the cards.

    Do keep us posted as to how you are doing Gill XXX

  • I am so sorry that Kevin has gone. I just want you to know that I am thinking of you. Gill xxx

  • Dear Tina

    PHEW I have not been on for a while and am reading posts from newest backwards. I thought I read that you HAVE got bowel cancer.

  • Hi Sally

    Welcome to the site. I am sure that you will get a great deal of information and support from everybody on here. It is my husband who is the mm person, and I have found a great deal of support and information on here. Good luck

    Gill

  • Gill replied to the topic sorry in the forum Newcomers 14 years, 11 months ago

    I cannot imagine what you put in your post to cause offense as I have not been on here for a while, but I think it would take a great deal to offend us lot. After all the greatest offense is getting this b**tard disease!!!

    I am so glad that Slim seems to be on the mend. Fingers crossed that he keeps on improving.
