Hi @wesleym, Welcome to Connect. Thanks for sharing your positive experince with having bone marrow biopsies. So many different stories with all of us!
Having two biopsies in the past six month is usually an indicator that your doctor is keeping close eye on the progression or treatment for a blood condition.

I’d like to help connect you to others who might be living with a similar diagnosis. Would you mind sharing a little more about yourself and your diagnosis? What’s prompted the BMBXs?

Incidental finding from workup for mild anemia: light chains varying between 70:1 and 100:1 (lambda:kappa). M-spike. BJ proteins in urine. But feel fine, ride bicycle 20 mi/day at age 73. FISH normal, kidney function normal, PET negative, no amyloid in cardiac MRI. Hemo/onco expected (twice) to find >10% plasma cells in marrow, but twice now has not (both 6-8%). Teetering on treatment / no treatment edge.

Thanks for the welcome.
