Hi all, I am replying to this as I am also a newcomer.I was diagnosed with myeloma on 15th june. Would have started treatment straight away but it was delayed due to covid 19. However I was told that it didn’t really matter when treatment starts as there is no damage to bones. I have had my head in the sand but as I start chemo on Monday thought I my see if someone could enlighten me as to what I can expect. I will be in dexamethane, bortezomid,and thalidomide with a injection of chemo. Injection Monday and Thursday for 2 weeks then 2 weeks off. Repeat each month for 6 to 8 months then stem cell transplant. Interested in first few weeks like when you know the drugs have really kicked in. But first got a football match to go and watch then see if I can reach the bottom of a bottle of him when I get home.
