    Hi. As everyone is different and emotional at this stage, May I recommend that to have a nice chat with one the Myeloma Org nurses. They are so knowledgeable and impartial. It gives you the chance to ask questions as you go along.

    My Best Wishes

    I just want to introduce myself having just been confirmed as a Smoulderer…………….

    I am Mike Hardy (68) living in Banbury and the Churchill Hospital in Oxford are looking after me. I was diagonosed with MGUS some 10 years ago and had 6 monthly blood tests. In Dec 2015, plasma was showing in the results although the other main parameters have remained stable.

    I have Ankylosing Spondylitis, an auto-immune disease like RA so I have SI, lower spine and neck pains constantly so being able to identify new bone pains will not be easy. Also, as I self catheterise, I am experienceing regular UTIs. My immunity is under constant attack.

    Does anyone have ways and means to boost their immune system?

    Bye for now, as I get my head around all this lot!!
