Here's to a "good hair day" soon!

Hi eve and Slim

What a hard road you have both travelled to get to this point. What a relief, at last, to hear some good news that makes all the difficulties of the Velcade treatment worthwhile.

Here's to the next two rounds really knocking this dreaded MM on the head.

All best wishes to you both.

Dear Abi

Like the others I wanted to say welcome to the site and to assure you that things are moving fast with the treatment of MM, and as Dai says, many in a similar position to your Dad have responded very well to treatment. It isn't a walk in the park, but neither is diagnosis the end of all hope.

All best wishes for Monday. I do hope…[Read more]

Hi Penny welcome your wonderfully positive attitude to mm will get you through it !! Being young and fit will also be a big help Just be careful to rest when your body demands it as treatment takes it out of you But I have no doubt you will be running, cycling and mountain walking again before very long Good luck and if you need support there…[Read more]

Hi Abi

I am sorry that you have to join our merry band but a heartful welcome. You will get support, information and even fun (although you wont feel like that now) from the people on this site. I agree with David about the recorder. My husband has MM and Elizabeth (on the forum) mentioned about the recorder. I bought one from Gizoo.co.uk.…[Read more]

Eve so happy for you both. I know the relief that you are feeling. Long may it continue. As Tom says "upwards and onwards".

Hi Belles it must be awful seeing your mum suffer but at least you know its par for the course Hopefully it wont last long and then she will start to feel better Hang in there it will be worth it in the end when she gets a very long remission and you can both get back to normal life love to you both Bridget x

Hi Bridget
Good to see you posting,and glad to hear not many side effects from Bendamustine.Sue,s husband who is on it,is not bringing PP down,but again not going up.
As for the apology about inhalers I do not expect one,this is what this site is about information and discussion and we women can talk talk and talk.Eve

If you did swallow a dictionary you might need AROMATHERAPY to help with indigestion!! Leaving APY love Bridget x
