When
someone is diagnosed with myeloma it can raise many questions
and stir a wide range of emotions for the patient and for their
family and friends. Information and support can help those involved
come to terms with all that a diagnosis can bring. There are
a number of websites on the Contact
& links page that can provide instant information for
those people recently diagnosed.
The Wellington Blood & Cancer Centre treats patients with
blood disorders and/or cancer and includes the three specialities
of medical oncology, radiation oncology and clinical haematology.
