Hi Carol and everyone

My mum is on revlimid. She's just started her 3rd cycle. Doctors are please with her progress and are estimating 6 cycles.
Reading your posts have made me feel so encouraged.
Everytime she has a consultant visit I feel sick to my stomach with worry but reading about your progress has taken that away.

Thank you x

Hi

My mum, Ada, is 65. They haven't said what type she has but the first blood test showed high protein so it might be heavy chain. She just had her first dose of meds. 34 in one go!
She has been put on the myeloma XI trial and her meds are lenalidomide(revlimid) , cyclophoshmide and dexamenthasome (RCD).
Readiing chrissies post I'm scared that the next time I see her she won't be the mum I know 🙁
I suppose that will be when it finally sinks in.

Thank you guys. At night I feel worse. Can't sleep. I have a brother and sister but we all live at different corners of the country so none of us are close to mum.
I will stay on this site, read people stories and share.
This morning, the calcium count has lowered so already a step forward.
