Many thanks David – I appreciate you taking the time out to respond.

I just have an agonising few week wait to see the Hematologist now to see what is what. My results were as below so not sure what they mean really only that it appears I have the M protein so likely MM or MGUS.

Kind Regards

Pav

Many thanks Ann – I appreciate your response.

It is fantastic to hear that you are in remission! You must have been very brave and have pleased you have got through it.

With regards to your very first symptoms – more specifically you chronic back pain was that always present in your condition and was the pain quite intense? I do get sporadic back pains for several months but pain is quite bearable to be honest and some days it is there and some days its gone!

I see the Hemotaligist in a couple of weeks and since then just need to try not to think about it. At this stage I have not had any xrays/ urine tests etc main abnormality so far was evidence of the M protein which I understand is known to exist in all MM patients.

Have a good weekend Ann x
