Hi Jean, I would try to keep Frank, and yourself of course, away from anybody with a cold/cough etc… if you can. Ask friends not to call if they have been in contact with someone who has had any form of infection. Avoiding shaking hands or any physical contact with other people is something else you can do.

The normal range for a healthy…[Read more]

I think wrong section! 🙂

This is all a bit "deep" for me but I did think Eva's comment [i]forgive his mistakes, but not his certainties [/i] was excellent and did made me think.

When I hear people pontificating about this and that I always reminded myself of the eminent Doctor who upon the invention of the steam train announced that the human body could not go faster…[Read more]

You…[Read more]

Thanks Guys and Gals, I would add that I am not complaining in the least.

My Consultant said basically the same thing i.e. "the good news is your body is fighting them" he also added that my general blood measurements were all in the normal range so not to worry and keep taking the Soluble Paracetamol when needed.

It certainly has not…[Read more]

I think all forums do go through phases as people come and go. I am a member of about 6 forums, dealing with different things of course, but the Myeloma UK forum is the only one I check into most days and read the posts. I do not always respond it will depend on what I am doing that day.

I think you must also take into account the limited…[Read more]

p.s. yes I am having one of my sleepless nights:-(

Hi Gina, Nice of you to remember us – thanks.

When my son died, aged 19, I put loads of pictures up of him all around the house, even in the tiolet. Generally you only take photographs at happy moments and so I had a constant reminder of the "good times".

All the very best, Kindest Regards – vasbyte

Hi Neelie, Unfortunately your story is not a rare one with regard to MM. I had MM 2 years prior to diagnosis and it was only breaking my neck getting out of bed one morning in July 2009 that brought about the diagnosis of MM.

I have found that the Doctors most favourite saying is ?It is all in your mind? and another nice little saying they…[Read more]

Thanks for your best wishes Gang, they are very much appreciated. Having been on top of the world yesterday I am struggling with a chesty cough at the moment ? not unwell enough to get out of doing my share of the housework though. >:-)

Yes Eve I am one of life?s organisers/planners. I stay absolutely positive about Myeloma but I am also…[Read more]

Hi Andy,

I am a Guinness drinker, not a great deal nowadays but I like a couple at the weekend, welllll perhaps more than a couple;-) . Whilst in Hospital, having my neck sorted out prior to starting Radiotherapy and Chemo (CDT) , the Senior Pharmacist came around to check on what medicines I was taking and was I taking them correctly. I…[Read more]
