Hi Jean
I use it all the time,If your unsure of anything there is a good library site,on here.
When this first started I was told Slim had MYeloma,and it was not compromising the cord,and that was it.Everything else I had to ask about,but when you are told new things your are in shock.Since then I have used this site and libraries to find out…[Read more]

Hi John
Slim has the same problem,he is also on Velcade to,I have suggested a picc line but they are worried about infections.
What I do is try to get him drinking a lot before blood test,and I have bought a hot water bottle which I fill at home,and rap it up in a pillowcase,which is applied to his arm all the way to the hospital,it seem to have…[Read more]

Hi Jean
There is a book called Myeloma your essential guide.
It is excellent,you can read it in little bits to take it all in Myeloma UK should be able to send you one,I got mine from the hospital along with other books about cancer.
If you ask for results of test and use the book it helps you understand them,plus it helps to know when bloods…[Read more]

Hi All
Sharon what are you on now.
It does not look if Slim will be given the option of SCT,because of lung damage with septic pneumonia,after doing 6 cycles of cdt and finding it has increased in the bone marrow to 80%,I have to wonder if trials are the right way to go?,they measured the success bench marker in free light chains,which actually…[Read more]

Sorry Jean I have no knowledge of this at all. Hopefully somebody will be able to explain. Have you thought of asking the nurses on this site? I know,from what other people have said, that they are very helpful.

I spent a little time in the States and there was a lovely saying our neighbours had (more than one saying but I will save others for…[Read more]

Hi Sharon
Must admit I search for everything concerning this disease,you just live in hope ,that there is something out there,that will work,and actually cure Myeloma.

I think the answer lies treating it why it is still contained in the marrow.
They are talking about 10 years research for Ecstasy.I also think some Myeloma,s are easier to…[Read more]

Hi Sally
Good to know your dads feeling a little bit more cheerful,it is a shock to the system when you are first told,and there is so much to take in.

Slim found it easier to do a big chart with the cycle on,easier to keep track of the pills,he kept 2 pill boxers one for hospital pills and one for own doctors pills.
I think you will have to…[Read more]

Hi Bridget

Just read your post so sorry about the pain you are in, hospices are wonderful for pain control,pain is so awful, watching gordon in pain was terrible like so many men he would not admit to the amount of pain he was in. cyber hugs but not to tight cause i do not want to hurt you.

Hi Amelie
It is nice to hear something positive,it was something he dreamed of and you made it come true,I like to think some good comes out of bad things even if it is only a learning curve.

I hope both of you have a long wish list and you make every day count.
