Yesterday was the first day off steroids after my four day block- had my biggest crash yet and by the end of the day could hardly get upstairs to bed. Don't know how much this is the steroids or the diabetes or both but it was certainly a hard day. As you'll all know by now I try to keep physically active but guess I may have to do less as I come off the steroids.
Phew!

About Me
- Stewart
- I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in 2003 and since then I have had six regimes of chemotherapy, a stem cell transplant; a significant pulmonary embolism and two dvts, have become diabetic and had a plate inserted in each arm and a pin in my leg in February 2007. I was included in the Lenalidomide Study at the Western General Hospital in Edinburgh. After 6 months of no treatment I went on a chemo regime involving prednisolone, melphalan and thalidomide. I'm now off that but my paraprotein is now rising quite quickly
