Weeks ago starting with discomfort (not pain) in my feet I began testing for multiple myeloma, first suggested by an elevated protein in my blood. After many negative (meaning good news) results, a PET scan was positive - I have multiple myeloma, which to me means blood cancer showing up in various places.
Consequently, last evening I began a treatment program of revlimid (a derivative of thalidomide) along with a number of other pills which I can neither spell nor pronounce but which are to ward off negative effects from revlimid. My good friends have been amused by the conditions to which I agreed to get thalidomide.
So, this is the first post to my blog about cancer. If you are reading it, I have continued to post thoughts and results with which I don't clutter your email but which you have been able to access here if and when you have any interest.
