Thanks for your feedback. I really appreciate it.
Mum’s Myeloma is restricted to one area of the back. It hasn’t spread and has caused no damage elsewhere. It appears that she is responding really well to chemotherapy and, half-way in, there have been no setbacks. When it was first diagnosed she said decisions were made by consultants as a group, rather than in isolation. I am not sure if this is the case this time.
I would really like her to get a second opinion if nothing else.
As for the second question: does anybody know what the procedure usually is when it returns? I know I am (hopefully) looking a fair way ahead, but is a second bout of chemotherapy simply dismissed, as she has been told?
