    HI Vicki and Colin
    thanks for your kind thoughts I seemed to have managed the MM better than the kidney issues strange but true

  • Hi Vicki and Colin, thank you. I joined this forum when first diagnosed with smouldering myeloma and have had the benefit of reading all your posts and others at the various stages people are at. It is very reassuring to have this forum and the support of Myeloma UK. Best wishes Andrea xx

    Hi Mandy

    Why not ask him what he would do if he was in your position,????? But still get another opinion?????,they all have different school of thoughts.

    I can only tell you,Slim was basically told,no treatment,would support him so go home and die,he is now being treated by another hospital after a second opinion,and yes we realise he still…[Read more]

  • Hi Carol

    Slim had the opposite of you,when they put it in it took over 4 hours,lot of pain,and because of this when it was removed it was day surgery,it just slipped out,after being in for a very long time!!!

    If it’s painful get it removed!!!!,did they realise they left it behind????
    It should be a day job surgery.

    Don’t,forget to say hello to…[Read more]

  • Hi Carol

    Thank you for the advice, I will take time off when I need it. I work in a hospital and feel very safe there, I think work will help keep my mind occupied for the time being! I wish you well on your recovery, you seem to have done very well. Best wishes Andrea xx

  • Hi Mandy

    The news is not good,but from previous post you new this was going to be that way,Mandy you had no remission so you are high risk and it’s not great for people in this situation, you have good things on your side,you are young enough to have a back to back SCT,you have a family to keep you going,this is all good.
