I had good news two days ago, so why do I feel so pants right now?
I can’t really explain it, it’s kind of like an anticlimax. Friends had talked about celebrating when I had good news, but I don’t feel like doing anything now I am in a position to celebrate.
I had two offers last night, a girly night on Friday & an adult only weekend at Butlins in a couple of weeks, and I turned them both down. I…
Saw the consultant today.
MGUS confirmed!
X-rays clear & bone marrow plasma cells only 1%.
He did discuss Myeloma but doesnt predict any problems for decades if at all.

Yay!
Thanks for all suport…

I started soon after my 18th. I’d gotten a bit behind due to pregnancies (I lost 4 babies between my 2 kids) & a couple of low Hb periods so I wanted to keep…
Ok, it's late & I should be sleeping, but I'm on my own so it's time to blog something!
I decided that when I got around to starting a blog I'd start with where I am now, then I'd go back over the last few weeks before updating as I feel.
So right now, I'm 40 years & 7 months old. (I somehow, but don’t know why, feel the 7 months is significant!)
I'm married with 2 children. A daughter…
