I just got the news that the lesions in my head are non malignant. "Yeah!" I'm thrilled.  That it is possible for me to live with myeloma and not be symptomatic. I'm glad. What this thing did to me psychologically, it almost sent me over the edge.  I had terrible thoughts and paranoia, was all about super healthy things and nothing else.  What is even worse is, if your a former Medic you know just enough to scare the out of yourself.  I realized that Vocational Rehab wanted to limit my possibilities for a medical occupation. So, I prove them wrong.  I can handle stress just like the rest of them even better in some cases. I've handled so many traumas in my life time that the average person would have gone crazy by now.  Hell, I might be crazy for all I know. But needless to say, I'm alive and living with benign tumors and that in itself is a miracle.

Well, I commend you and certainly wish you the best of luck.  You seem so strong which is what you will need to be.  I lost my husband to and it's been a hard road.  But it's nice to hear some good positive news from someone with the devil desease.  Hang in there=0)
