Myeloma centers in Southwest or Midlands of UK?

by Colleen Berg on Tue Oct 18, 2011 9:44 am

I have been living in Australia, Sydney, for the past 9 years. In February 2005 I was diagnosed with multiple myeloma and am at present free of medication having been successful on Velcade (bortezomib).

I would like to know where I could be serviced in terms of hospitals somewhere in the south west or the midlands, having lived in those areas for 25 years and have connections there, family and friends.

I am thinking of returning in April May of next year. I would also need to know what help I could expect to receive in terms of support.

I am a British citizen.

Thanking you,

Yours sincerely,

Colleen Berg

Hi colleen,

I believe the QE is an option to consider, but I'm no expert. I'm at the Royal Marsden in Surrey which has Gareth Morgan.

Good luck with your return to the UK,
