Diagnosed end of Aug and started chemotherapy 5th Sept.
Getting a diagnosis of myeloma can be traumatic. Going through chemo can be damned tough. I agree with Vespa that life gets better with time. You have to through this rite of passage first.
I did not have a stem cell transplant. It's a long story. Anyway, I am typing this from a holiday with family and I have been in remission for well over a year. It is not exactly my first holiday since chemo either!
All the best. Feel free to tell us more, but of course only if you want to.
