Thanks Jill, that’s great news about your mum. Really hope Dad has the same experience. It’s a bit tricky for us as he lives with Mum, who is very disabled with MS and also has severe dementia, so he have a lot of support but it will make the chemo very tough for him.

Thanks Andy, your advice is really appreciated.  It’s all completely new to us so we really don’t know what to expect at all.  It’s great that this forum exists to help and support people affected by Myeloma.

Thanks Mavis and Andy, I really appreciate your advice and comments.

We saw the consultant again today and Dad has been told that he has a 53% kappa protein level – which has increased from 34% in December.  As he’s 76 he will be starting a lower level chemo/less aggressive dose starting next week .  His age precludes him from the higher doses.  The consultant was so good and answered all our questions and Dad was happier after the discussion.
Dad is struggling, so it’s a relief treatment will start soon and everything xed this help him.
