Hi Everyone

Well we made it,and when I learn how to put pictures on here,you might see some.

Has taken a fair time to get over the flight home,at the moment Slim is doing better than me,he,s waiting on consultant for the ok,it's a bit of a worry every 2months wondering if its all ok,as Slim is one of these people that it no longer shows…[Read more]

Hi Maureen

My husband did 6 cycles after CTD failed for him,tolerated it very well,went on to SCT and is now in remission .hope every thing goes well with your husband.

Time soon passes,the worst thing was having to go to the hospital bloods in the morning then home and back again twice a week,use to look forward to the week off.Eve

Hi Paul
A warm welcome to the group, it's not an easy task Paul but you can do it, I did it in 2009 bit rough at times but trust me well worth it.

Good Luck in your road to remission.

Hi Lisa and Mick

We have a few on here doing great and not having a SCT and I think the Dr's are nw thinking that its best if we don't have one ? .

Stay well .

Hi Lesley

Its not a walk in the park to be honest BUT it is doable as we say I have had mine since 2008 (ish) CTD then SCT in 2009 and am now Drug free and doing well8-)

Hi Tina

Would agree with Tom,you have along way to go,Slim has the same problem,try sucking sweets helps with moisture ,Slim is getting a bit better,but sometimes he goes to speak,and because his mouth is so dry,he does not make sense.Always carries drinks with him no matter were we go.Eve

Hi Steve

When are you taking the Dex,should be early in the morning as possible,it did make Slim argumentative,so certain he was right,plus became anxious at my driving luckly he did realise it was the Dex,It gave him a good appetite for a few days,so that was good.
The bad thing about it,is it mask infections,so you have to be careful and…[Read more]

Am sorry Hubby is having too many infections? (what kind of infection?)
As for the CDT I was on that in 2009 it made me tired that tired that I went on sick during my 4th cycle 🙁
