Two years ago I was in so much pain, I had lesions on my bones, a tumour in my lung. I could barely function, getting out of bed was so painful. I had refused medical treatment hoping that I could clear this on my own. My belief was at a low ebb, I dumped my Oncologist for another with more open views.
This Christmas day I am pain free, I have no problems with my bones and my tumour has disappeared. I had decided that treatment was my only option and however badly I thought of medical intervention I would have to make it work for me. I lost faith and paid the price. I now have it back and together with my new Oncologist have beaten MM back to almost nothing. I am fit and well, no pain, kappa currently at 35 and still reducing, I am still working full time. I am beginning my 19th year of my relationship with MM. I have said it before: I believe in life, I believe we have power over cancer and illness. My change in thinking is that sometimes we cannot do this alone, sometimes we need help and 16 years after my first treatment I gave in to medical help. Medicine and me have now beaten MM into submission, my belief is back to full strength.
My original MM was para-protein this was cured and has not returned. I am now looking towards a cure for Kappa levels. Who knows what could be next, I am told MM is incurable. It may be, but I believe we can do much personally to keep it at bay; if you read my blogs you know what I believe.
I wish you all a happy Christmas and a healthy New Year.
