Still nothing much to write about myeloma. There's a piece in the Mail on Sunday saying that NICE have approved Lenalidomide as a first-line treatment. It's poorly written (surprise!) and shows little understanding of the issues, and I've found no confirmation elsewhere, including MyelomaUK. We know this is coming sooner or later, but I fear the MoS has jumped the gun a bit. There's also a newspaper report on a variety of up-and-coming drugs that aren't exactly cures for COVID-19 but dramatically reduce the severity of an infection. Dexamethasone is one of the ones quoted... If so, I hope 20mg a week is enough!
I hope to have more after the meeting with my haematologist later today.
Played boules at Ongar yesterday morning (not at my best, especially in the second game) and there was a Sunday Market in the car park. It included these Morris Dancers. Strange to see them in face-masks, but I suppose even traditional arts must move with the times...
