At the moment I just have the bog standard G Myeloma so can offer no advice on the measurement of light chains. I just wanted to wish Colin well and give you a warm welcome to the site, which is the best site around for all things Myeloma.

Hi all Mo and I have just come back from "sunny" Spain, well actually the first 3 days were dull and overcast but it was not cold. We popped over for a week to visit her Brother who has reached his 80th, a really good family reunion.
Now we are hoping for a change in the weather this week. We are off to the New Forest, bottom of England and…[Read more]
