Hi Cath,
Sorry it has taken me so long to return your message. How is your treatment going? Great I hope! I am just now starting to see my counts increase, just slightly. It is the first increase in a year. My oncologist said that I will probably have to have another treatment of Velcade if my counts rise any higher but If one treatment lasts for a year I'm a happy camper! Let me know how you are doing. I am so greatful for this treatment. The hardest challenge I have had since I started taking it is learning how to live again instead of wondering how much longer I will be around. Erasing the doubts or at least putting them on the back burner has been difficult for me. I guess it was my pessimistic side that wouldn't let go of the first diagonsis of 6 months or less to live. I guess someone is watching over us with the approval of Velcade. Take care Darlene
