    Hi
    I (64 year old woman) too have been diagnosed with ‘light chain’ asymptomatic myeloma but only 5 months ago. I have also been diagnosed with osteoporosis which they don’t think has been caused by the myeloma but in the light of the myeloma diagnosis I am being treated with 6 monthly Zometa 4mg infusions and had the first in November. I had to have a dental check prior to treatment and experienced no side effects from the Zometa.
    I wasn’t aware there was a possibility that Zometa could help delay the onset of MM and had assumed it was all about my osteoporosis.
    My experience is so limited that I don’t think it can help you unfortunately but I am interested in how you are doing and any tips you can pass on to me. I am appreciating that Asymptotic (Smouldering) Light Chain Myeloma seems to be relatively rare and haven’t come across much in the literature or anyone else who is experiencing it.
