Thank you for the reassurance. I did some research and it seems kyphoplasty is vey similar to the procedure Mum had today so it’s nice to hear from someone who has  had a positive outcome.

The operation went well today and 5 vertebrae were treated. We initially thought only 2 were being done but turns out more was required. Now we…[Read more]

My mum’s having a verterbroplasty on wednesday. It’s the first time and we’re praying for the positive outcome that reviews of the treatment suggest- help reduce her pain and improve mobility (she has none currently). Has anyone else had one and could offer their experience please?

Thanks in advance

<p style=”text-align: left;”>Thanks for the advice. We will have a look at all the information. My Dad has managed to get a bit of advice off the nurse assigned to my Mum today and we’re hoping for some more tomorrow from the consultant.</p>

Thanks for your message. I’m sorry to hear of your diagnosis but it’s good to know you’re doing well after your treatment.

I don’t actually know what type of MM it is but I’ll see if I can find out. The pain is in her back, she’s in tramadol and morphene which I think helps to manage it but she still feels it. She’s struggling to get…[Read more]

This is somewhat reassuring as we have thought it was due to Mum not being used to the drugs etc. We will speak to the consultant next week and see what they say. Thank you again.

My Mum has recently been diagnosed and is in the last week of her 1st cycle of treatment (VTD). She has been extremely sick since the end of week 2 and is now on the third lot of anti-sickness tablets but none seem to be working. She’s struggling to keep drugs down and food, she cannot get out of bed due to the pain she’s in and she is…[Read more]
