Hi Sab, many thanks for your post with regards your husband and his treatment. Your right, psychologically this is very testing for me, as your always thinking the worst.. However i hope to be at this stage "fingers crossed" for a long time to come. My para proteins are still quite low at 11. I have been made aware that every Myeloma case is different to the rest. I am still going through the stage of acceptance with this. I have however a strong close family who support me in every way. Thanks Sab for your post as you have just given me a lift..

All the very best of luck to your husband and family

Hi everyone. I spotted the under 50's board and would very much like to join. I was diagnosed with Smouldering Myeloma recently and now just going through the initial stages of acceptance. My father passed away last year aged 75 with Muliple Myeloma, so i am familiar with treatment plans and diagnostic terminology. After further research i am now aware that every case is different. So i just have to remain positive and focus on life. Feel a bit down but hopefully the under 50's will cheer me up with some good banter and info. I am also willing to take part in any fund raising.

Hi Ted many thanks for your post. Tricky one this Myeloma… Waiting games.. However i just have to remain positive about the whole affair and enjoy life before treatment. I have researched Myeloma and went through my fathers treatment plan so all the catch phrases are known to me. Well carry on smouldering Ted and all the best mate. Take care. John

Hi Andrea,
Thank you so much for your reply. I lost my father just over a year ago aged 75. He had Multiple Myeloma. However, he had several other heath issues that masked the Myeloma symptoms. So when he was found to have Myeloma he was already in the latter stages with little medication that would benefit him. The specialists say he may have had Myeloma for some time but couldn't possibly time frame his illness. You are right Andrea just waiting for the second hit is a nightmare but we have to be positive and focus on getting on with life. Treatments and research are always ongoing so fingers crossed for the future and i hope you too have a very long smouldering time. Take care John x
