Hi Terry

We must indeed be almost neighbours, as we live in the last road on the right at the bottom of Poverest Hill. We are about half way along where the semis are. (The one with the iron gates).

Stephen hasn?t attended Kings since his last SCT so it was not us you saw. Mind you I just love the idea that we have doppelgangers that are the…[Read more]

Hi Everybody
Zometa is known to be very effective on bone damage,usually administered once a month to strengthen bone with Adcal-D3 once a day.This has worked wonders on Slim,who could not even lift a carry bag with one item in.
Now he is on Velcade he has Zometa every three weeks,but Myeloma is 80% in marrow,
I can only say doing research on…[Read more]
