February 2011 - The Hematologist - The First Results

Back to the Hematoligist office, stress is high. The doctor gives us the results, high monoclonal proteins in the blood and urine. The doctor explains these are light chain proteins and they are failing to make a whole protein. What does this mean? Then the words come out, I think you have Multiple Myeloma, but we need a bone marrow biopsy to confirm this. The bone marrow biopsy is scheduled for the following week.
