Dear Yvonne
My husband was diagnosed with MM 4 months ago and is in his initial treatment. yes it is scary learning more about the disease and it will get worse before it gets better. My husband was very much in pain during the first treatment cycle, but it got slowly better after a month and much better after 2 months. He is not 100% out of pain yet, but is able to manage a normal lifestyle.
Please remember this will take a toll on you too. You will also need adequate care and support. You need to be strong for your husband, help him with the medication. It is overwhelming to begin with to remember what medicines to take on which day, but it becomes easier.
Please reach out for support when you need it. We are all in this together.
