    Hi Shaun

    Got on quite well with it.

    The only thing I noticed was that I was still awake at midnight when usually I’d be half a sleep by 10pm.

    How long was it after the first 4 days of dexamethasone did you start your treatment?

    I’ve been told that I need to have a dental check before I can start chemo. Did you have to do the same?

    I tried 2.5ml of liquid morphine at about 2pm but will be trying 5ml before bed.

    Thanks

    Hi ymca

    Have just seen your post.

    Did you ever get any help with a back brace or was it not recommended?

    I have just been diagnosed on 31st July and have just asked my care team the same question as my lower back feels fragile and I have very little strength in it.

    Hi Shaun

    Thanks for your reply.

    This all very new to me.

    I finished my first dose of dexamethasone last week and am now waiting further treatment but have been given liquid 5ml morphine and slow release morphine tablets. Were you given either of these and if so, how did you get on?

    Thanks

    Rachel
