Managing High-Risk Smoldering Myeloma?
AI-generated title
Over the past four years I've been dealing wih MGUS and this past September myKappa/lamda light chain ratio went up to 110 so my Dr.(hemotologist/Oncologist suggested I have a bone marrow biopsy which I had in late September. The results of the biospy show I have 15% plasma cells in my bone marrow and the FISH results show I have a high risk for MYC/igh myeloma which I understand is an agressive, hard to treat myeloma.
I will be 80 years old in December and I have no other Myeloma symptoms like kidney problems, high calcium, and anemia. All my other blood work has been normal for the past four years. I'm in good health and walk on a regular basis.
Is anyone else dealing with this issue? My Dr. has requested I have blood work every 3 months which I have already scheduled.
I hoping I will continue to be healthy, but if not, does anyone have the difficult to treat myeloma and if so, what helpful information can you give me.
Thank you for your response.
