Subject: RE: light chain myeloma
Date: 03/14/2008

Hello there,

My mother has Bence Jones Myeloma/ Light Chain Myeloma. At the moment she has had VAD, Stem Cell transplant, Thalidamide (which was ceased due to severe constipation) now they are waiting on Velcade. She was admitted today with Kidney Failure and her Bence Jones has increased to 8. That is very high for mum. So they have started her on a high dose of Dex as well as Morphine. She looks good but this nasty cancer can be invisible to others.

I have asked about her prognosis and was advised that the kidney damage can be reversed. If not then dialysis is an option. 

Feel free to ask me questions I will be more than happy to help if I can..

Melanie
