Hi Chalky, I was diagnosed with Myeloma 4 years ago and have just started readiation treatment for the pain from a tumour on my spine. It is excruciating and have to get pain under control before i start on the chemo road. However, I have had hyerpercalcemia, kidney failure, 2 bouts of pneumonia from the Myeloma and was told because I refused chemo up front that it is like putting out spot fires but it will develop into a bushfire eventually, if you can understand that analagy. Guess I am there now! Have had two lots of Zometa infusions and have an immunoglobulin infusion once a month which helps with infection due to suppressed immune system, hang in there, the waiting is awful I know. And feel free to chat if you would like.
