My freins has been told that her Myeloma has now spread to her brian.  Doctors are going to treat her with chemo via a lumber puncture.

 

Please can anyone tell me what we can expect now it has gone to the brain, is the chemo likely to work.

 

Thank you

Hi,

I am so sorry to hear about your friend. Myeloma invading the brain is very serious. Treatment is certainly a challenge in these cases.

Sincerely,
