Hi Wenno, just seen your post, which struck a chord with me..my sister was diagnosed with Myeloma 22 months ago.. I still remember the fear and terror of that day.. she accepted some treatment which included chemo, medication and bone strengthening infusions.. she decided against further treatment which was very invasive.. after the initial impact on her mental health she is now keeping as well and active as her stamina allows
Is there a support group or do you have a designated Nurse you can speak to.
I realize it doesn't change things for you but hopefully make you feel less alone..
Hi ladies thanh you both for replying,been for more blood checks today seems nothing got worse and they are holding steady.Heart check on Friday to see if I’m fit enough for harsh treatment,waiting or bone marrow results,see consultant next Wednesday to discuss a treatment plan quality of life is also important so softer approach may be better.Feel a little better things are moving forward.Thanks helps a lot.
Be kind to yourself and take care...
