Mine are 90% plasma cells in the bone marrow and understand normal is less than 5%.

Wow, that's amazing. My first BMB came back only 10%. I'm getting another one in a couple of days because the hematologist believes it's probably actually higher than that given my free light chain ratio. But I imagine it will still be < 20%. I sure hope your treatment gets that % way down. Praying for you brother!

5 or less is normal .. The medication can reduce the plasma cell.
