    Hi Jane
    Nice to hear from you,take it your under fifty to introduce your self on there,people might miss it,you might like to go to newcomers,people are more likely to see it.

    Helps if you tell a bit about yourself as some actually meet in hospitals and might be of use to you if you are worried about anything. Eve

    Hi Keith
    You sound a bit down,let's not think about what the doctor said,lets just think I am going to jump the hurdle, if its any help to you when Slim was being taken to ITU a young doctor,said we're taking you to ITU I cannot promise you will not die,he had not even asked,luckly he cannot remember .

    They do not know everything Keith,what…[Read more]

  • Aww bless, w know its going to happen but it's still hard, mouthwash I can tell you you can't use too much.
    Pete will lose weight for some time due to not being able to eat, plenty of ice cream and ice pops did well for me during this time.

    Love Tom Onwards and Upwards xxxx

  • Hi Dai

    It's great when one can get the vein first time, we had one Mature Nurse who used to crack it every time but she told me it was because she used to work on a baby ward and some time she had to get one in on the head of the poor child.

    And as for the cats whisker am sure we would all be happy with that if it went in first time ha ha,…[Read more]

  • Hi Helen

    I thought something might be up,as no postings,I find I miss things if I do not look in daily

    I am sorry,are you not tempted to start treatment while its low !!! The reason I ask this is the was an article about people who had CDT then Velcade having better remission time might not mean anything though.
    It,s a strange place to be…[Read more]

  • Hi Mavis
    Well am for that bit over 67 and am sure the big man will allow it haha.
    Yes it is a bugger to be ill enough to claim it and to be fair I wouldn't want to be that ill.

  • eve replied to the topic Frank starts SCT in the forum Treatment 11 years, 9 months ago

    Hi Jean And Frank,

    I will not tell you not to worry,because you will,but if you are unsure of anything ask the nurses or if you think about something once you come home,ask on here,there are enough people on here,who have all gone down that path.

    Remember Jean,after about six days,old clothes you can throw away,tell him not to get…[Read more]
