Thank you Tom, Hopefully the good news will keep coming, we do dread the dreaded hospital visits every 8 weeks but come away feeling relieved and positive so long may it happen.
You all take care of yourselves and i thank you all again for your advice and support

Thank you to you all for your replies. I think my mum is just worrying a bit because she has always been so fit and active. She thinks she still should be. But you are right everything else is ok so we need to think positive. Thank you again for your advice, i am really grateful.

Welcome to the site,although not a nice place to be. The people on here are brilliant at giving support and advice. My mum has myeloma and has had it since 2009 she is 71. Its good to know there are people that understand and can help when advice is needed.

I am so sorry for your loss, my thoughts are with you and your family xx

I just want to say how sorry i am. I am thinking of your family at this sad time x

My mum is on monitoring bloods at the moment, as her other bloods are ok they are not treating her. She goes to hospital every 8 weeks. Her pp is 33.5 at the moment and this has steadily risen from 18. They are not overly worried as the myeloma is not in her bones at the moment, they say her cancer is low scale. We are very positive about this and have been told unless her other bloods cause problems or there is a significant rise in her pps they will carry on and monitor. Im sure you mil is ok, as soon as the pps rise quite significant then i assume they will monitor her.
Positive thinking thats what my mum says. She was diagnosed with mm in 2009 and fingers crossed is doing ok .
Hope your mil is ok, take care Gina x

Thats good then,im sure it will be what they say and they will treat you. Its brilliant that you have told your parents that is just what my mum would say to me. Im glad you have told them. Let us know when you get your results from your x ray.

Sorry Joe, dont know where i got Arthur from. Hope you are ok.

[gina45Participant]

Hi Arthur, im sorry you are going through so much.
It is my mum that has myeloma and it can be very hard.
I would think if it was my mum she would be very upset if she didnt know.
Its different for everyone but i think your parents would want to know. Hope you are ok

Hi John and welcome to the site. Its my mum who has myeloma she is 71. Everyone on this site are lovely and helpful.
Take care x

Hi, I'm sorry to hear about your dad, and glad he is feeling a little better. My mum is 71 and nearly in her 2nd yr of having mm. She has had chemo treatment and is now on monitoring bloods, she is doing ok. I was told that she wont be given stem cell treatment because of her age and there are only certain treatments she can have. Her paraproteins are slowly rising but because her other bloods are ok they are reluctant to treat. You never know if its because of her age or the way they do things. i hope your dad gets the right treatment.
Take care
