Chirpster, you have earned that cigar so hope you enjoy it.
It is really good to hear stories like this as it gives hope to others battling this disease.
I was eventually diagnosed at the end of 2016 after feeling unwell for quite some time and had the usual course of CVD treatment which brought my light chains down from 222 to around 55 but they have gradually crept back up and are now back over 100 and have to admit I am suffering a lot of fatigue so suspect that I am relapsing.
I was back at haematology last week for another blood test and was told to return in 2 weeks so suspect that next week when I return I will find I am booked in for another course of treatment. Just hope that it slows the further decline in my kidney function!
