Myeloma

New to the group - diagnosed with Myeloma in August due complete 2nd cycle of my treatment next week. It would good to speak to anyone with the same cancer especially with the STEM harvester procedure 

  • Hello JEC10

    I'm sorry to hear about your recent diagnosis of Myeloma. I hope that your first cycle of treatment went smoothly and that you're being well supported by those involved in your care. 

    We have several people who have posted about going through treatment for myeloma on the forum. You can use the search function at the top of the page to search for the term "myeloma" and read through some of those posts. You might also want to have a look at the Blood Cancer UK website. 

    Hopefully you will be able to connect with others who have been through the STEM harvester procedure. There is some information about this on the Myeloma UK as well as information about stem cell transplants on our website. 

    If it would help to chat things through with one of our nurses at any point, you're welcome to call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. I know they will be happy to talk and offer any advice, information and support they can. 

    I hope that the second cycle goes well next week. Let us know how you get on. 

    Best wishes, 
    Jenn
