Hi Everyone

Hi Dai

Well I must have read it wrong as well,Revidimide and Velcade had to be used before eligibility for Muks 5 .Which if only patients who were on CDR then Velcade then relapsing would be eligible,I would think they will be hard pushed to find patients!!!!

I would seriously question eligibility !!! Good luck Dai. Love Eve

As for depression it must come with the territory ,its the ability to recognise it,do something about it,and not…[Read more]

Hi Sandiex

Your mum should only get zometa side effects for a short while and it does work wonders with bones for a short period. Why Warfarin and not Claxane you could do them for mum they will do the same job but cost more, I would consider Claxane to be very important as chemo side effects are blood clots!!!,
