Helen why so do you say possibly. What is your oncologist telling you? I have Stage I MM and I am going to the oncologist every month for bloods. Bone scans are good , but what shows the best results are two other tests. 1. Pet Scan
2. Mri with and without contrast. Just ask your doc and see what he says.
May I ask where you are seeing you oncologist and who it is. I see Dr. Peles at the Palm Bech cancer Institute.

My oncolpgist said as of my last blood tests-no myeloma but am at high risk. I have lab tests again in Dec & another bone survey.I hope I don't have any more lytic lesions other then the one I had removed by surgery & then radiation to the site. I also had what they called a collection of cells on my sacrurm treated with radiation & the repeat bone scan could not find them. This is all new to me & I plan on attending a support group in Dallas this Sat who has a specialist scheduled to speak.
