Hi all
Chris, worried about you, not heard from you in a while, hope all going well.
Pete is overnight in Musgrove tonight. Seeing him today after the 2 hour dose of chemo made everything suddenly feel so real!! He looked so washed out this evening, still on a drip, but apparently everything ok, providing he keeps going to the loo to wash…[Read more]

Hi all
Hope you all keeping well!
Just a couple of quick questions if you don't mind.
Pete is going into Musgrove on 5th December overnight for a line to be fitted plus some chemotherapy (Is'nt is strange, you sit through a consultation and come out not knowing anything!!) The Consultant also mentioned that Pete would have to inject…[Read more]

Hi Tom
Sorry to bother you, but just a few questions as you have been through the process!!
Pete has got a date for 5th December, overnight stay in Musgrove Taunton for what we believe to be a blast of Chemotherapy and a line fitted??? Still not got our heads around all the terminology!! (You read all the posts, but when it happens to you,…[Read more]

Hi Chris
Well done, so pleased to hear your news. Hopefully my husband Peter will be taking your place on Ward 9 at Musgrove in a couple of weeks time, I just hope he does as well as you. We have obviously been reading your posts, as well as Vicki and Colin's and it does help, albeit no-one is the same!! I suppose the record to beat being…[Read more]

Oh Vicki
Really thought by your posts that Colin would be home this week-end, but as you say, this Myeloma is a blooming roller coaster, everyone's symptons/recovery modes – so different. Then again you say more positives than negatives, so really wishing Colin the best!!!
All ok here, Pete has a stinking cough and a really bad cough, but…[Read more]

Hello Rachel
What a terrible shock! I too had missed your post because I don't normally visit the Under 50's site.
Our thoughts are with you at this very sad time

Hi Vicki and Colin
So pleased to hear your news! Must admit, although I look at the site every day and keep in touch with what is happening to everyone, have been going through a period, when I have felt really sad and could'nt bring myself to post anything!! Seems really selfish, but we are all different!! But anyway, reading your post…[Read more]

Hi all
Really grateful for all your comments, has certainly shed some light on the condition, so Pete does feel somewhat happier. Bit disappointed however that as well as the heart scan (appointment still not through, but he will chase it tomorrow), they have also said that he will have a 7th month on CDT and then hopefully!! – SCT.
Take…[Read more]

Hi Jean
Oh, so does sound as though it could possibly be associated with the medication, fingers and toes crossed!!!!! I am praying that is the case. All his other tests ie heart, lungs, kidneys etc have come back clear!!!
Thanks Jean for replying, it really does help.

Hello all
Question:- Did any of you on CDT suffer with swollen ankles and numb toes?
Pete has had the problem since July. Consultant dismissed it at first, but at the last meeting suggested it might be related to his heart, despite 2 ECG's and an Angiagram coming back clear!!!! Waiting for an appointment for a heart scan, but still not…[Read more]
