Happy to join the group. I am an African with Multiple myeloma diagnosed 2yrs ago. Had chemotherapy & stem cell treatment at Oxford as a private patient. I did tolerate all my medications without much problem. I am in remission.
Is there any support for foreigners in UK?
Financial, psychological and physical support as it’s very expensive to go through the unending treatment I am going through as MM is not curable but treatable as my consultant told me.
It is also very lonely being away from family and this disease makes me change my outlook to life.
What is next to do in life comes to my mind regularly!
I do not smoke or drink & did play golf 2ce a week before now, eat healthy foods, drink water, walking for 1hr daily etc, but where did I get MM from?
My treatment in UK gave me the golden opportunity to still be alive today but how long can I afford this, especially as a Private patient with no insurance, medical expertise, tools & support isn’t available in my country!
2ndly is it still possible I get a private insurance done at my present condition and 66yrs old?
Thanks
