Hi Gavin I missed your post originally but I see you have made your decision now Good luck with the chemo and trial In my experience the care you recieve when taking part in trials is excellentAs for your age being a factor David( Perkymite) has just had his sct at 68 and is doing very well so theres no reason to think age alone would mean things wont go well Heres to the new year and I hope you get a good result and have a long period where you are treatment free love Bridget

Hi Georgina I met Prof Tobias last year and was due to have radiotherapy then , but as I was taking part in the Myeloma X Trial and radiotherapy would have inhibited sem cell collection, it was postponed. Jane the specialist nurse is brilliant and I could have seen the Prof the day before xmas eve, I chose to wait as I had just come out of hospital and needed time at home . I do have a very high pain threshold so I can wait another 12 days A very happy new tear to you and your family and please give mum my best wishes love Bridget x
