Hi Rich
Sorry for the delay in my reply, I was scheduled to start my treatment at The Beatson Cancer Centre in Glasgow on Tuesday (6th Dec) but when I arrived the detected that I had a temperature of 38.1, I didn’t feel unwell but the decided to run a number of tests and then decided to admit me to a ward. I was allowed home last night (7th Dec) as my temperature was back to normal and my bloods infection markers were okay. My treatment has been put back a week to allow me to finish the course of antibiotics. My treatment is now scheduled for Tuesday 13th Dec. I will be getting Daratumumab (Darzalex), Bortezomib (Velcade) and steriods (Thalidomide & Dexamethasone). I am imagine that like most people starting treatment I am a bit apprehensive. In my mind I have planned for a tough time ahead for the next year but hopefully can look forward to getting back to near normal for a number of years. If there is any advice that you can offer to help me through this coming year I will welcome it with open arms.
Kind reagrds
Graham
