    I am doing great with it albeit tired a lot but I listen to my body and when it tells me to sleep I sleep Ha ha.

    Hi Susie

    Sorry in my late reply and am sorry I cant help as so far i have a little bit of back pain but its (or so am told) arthritis ???   am sure your bloods will tell your Consultant if the Myeloma has kicked in and my advice would be to talk to him or his secretary and ask for more bloods to be taken and let them have a look.

    Good Luck and…[Read more]
