Good News!

George and I were in Little Rock this week for me to have some tests and see my doctor.
The bone marrow biopsy showed only 8.5% myleoma cells in my marrow. In July there was 23% myeloma cells. The PET scan also showed less activity.

The Velcade/dex IV that I have once a week is working well. My doctor wants me to continue this for another 3 months. I'll return to LR, have another bone marrow biopsy and see the doctor then.
