My Wife Has MM Kappa Stage 1. She Really Doesn't Want To Do Chemo. Is Nutrition And Immunotherapy And Option W/o Chemo?
A MyMyelomaTeam Member asked a question 💭

She is 57 and broke a hip caused by MM. All of her numbers were good except kappa M protein. Good health otherwise and active.

I have not had chemo. My dr has me on immunotherapy drugs and I am doing fine. Hopefully she will do as well. With this disease she really should see someone who specializes in MM as a normal oncologist only sees about 1% of MM in his practice.

The plasma protein is low, but MM can do crazy things very quickly. It's always her choice as to treatment.

She has no bone lesions. She had a PET scan but is was found from doing a bone marrow test. She is seeing an oncologist. The plasma 10-15 percent

If she broke her hip, does she have MM bone lesions? She should be followed by an MM specialist, or at least, a cancer specialist who often treats MM patients.
