Mutible Myeloma Posted: 01-10-04 13:39pm
I have a friend who has multible myeloma,
and was told as the illness has
progressed, that it was detected to late,
and all the threatments he was given are
not working. He had chemo and it did not
worked on him, or only for a short time
had bin on velcade as soon it was found to
help, was on most clinical trial available
and still now is in stage 3 of the
illness. Right now he is getting 5
different types of pain killers and has
started to take so many of them and is so
dopped up by them he can't function and
still has the pain.
Depression, and no control of emotions.
He was told there is nothing to do anymore
and it will be like this until the end. I
just can't believe this and need an anwser
to this. He was diagnosed with this about
3 years ago. Should he take this as the
only opinion or check with a specialist
threating this only.
Thank you
in advance
