Why do they say it is smoldering? Did they test your protein? My mother had MM and indicators were high protein and IGa best wishes. My NP got MM and she recently had a stem cell transplant In Indy at the Simon cancer center to hopefully cure it

Total Protein is not elevated but IgA is ag 2350 with a FLC Ratio is at 5 with a 1.6 M Spike. Bone Marrow is at approximately 20% plus they have the +1q gain genetic marker.
My 20/20/20 is 20/1.6/5 but because of the genetic marker it bumped me to average risk of progression.
