It sounds as though you have a trusted medical team. It takes some time to assemble the right combination so that’s good.
The assessment of hip pain being related to M protein in the blood by your hematologist is new to me. I’d be interested in how those dots might be connected. Are all your clinicians able to share electronic medical records? It’s so helpful if they all use the same system.
9-11 exposure…I’m so sorry. Just the trauma of watching it on TV was terrifying and heartbreaking. I can’t even imagine actually being there during or after. I’m so sorry.
The bone biopsy will give your docs a lot of information and will enable a definitive diagnosis.
It’s hard to sit with all this and the anxiety. I hope you do have a close friend or family member to whom you can confide. We all need that support.
Let us know what you find out.
Hugs.
