Pre myeloma diagnosis

 

Hi All,

 

My wife has been going through a raft of tests and now they suspect Myeloma, she has raised blood levels and now they are doing specific tests for this. I think the biggest scare here is the word incurable there seem to be life prolonging treatments rather than curing.

Any advice is appreciated

  • Hi Conjam, 

    I hope some of our Myeloma members pick up on your post and offer their thoughts and advice to you soon but whilst you wait you and/or your wife are very welcome to have a chat with one of our cancer nurses about the terminology surrounding this diagnosis on 0808 800 4040. They're available Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m and will do all they can to put your mind at ease.

    For further information and advice it may be worth heading over to Myeloma UK.

    Fingers crossed your wife's test results bring good news when they come through Conjam.

    All the best,

    Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
