She does not have any treatment now. Her K/L ratio is 50. IgA is 22, upper limit is 4. Her blood calcium is borderline. BMB shows 26% of abnormal cells. No other symptoms. Local Doc wants to wait and watch. I really want to get a second opinion at Mayo. But mum can’t travel now due to fracture. We live in Australia.

Hello @blessing19

Perhaps when she is more recovered from the fracture she can travel and get a second opinion. How old is your mom? Is your mom seeing an oncologist who specializes in this?

Even if she can’t travel to Mayo, I would encourage you to get a second opinion, did they do a scan to see if this is causing holes in her bones. If she was diagnosed because of a fracture, this would be a concern. If there is bone damage occurring this would indicate active disease.
