Community Member
a month agoI have light chain myeloma low level disease and currently on active surveillance… my recent mri showed several herniated discs and kappa is 100.3 and ratio 2.41.. both slowly rising… are herniated discs from the myekoma

a month agoThis connection between disc issues and blood cancer progression is definitely worth discussing with your care team, as they can best evaluate your specific situation and test results. Many factors can contribute to spinal changes, and your oncologist will be able to help determine if there's any relationship to your condition or if these are separate issues that need attention. Have other community members here experienced similar concerns during their active surveillance periods?
