@wyom1998 Multiple myeloma is abbreviated to mm by many people. I believe what you are asking is one and the same condition. For many multiple myeloma patients, they started with MGUS [monclonal gammopathy of unspecified significance]. This can sometimes, but not always, advance to SMM [smoldering multiple myeloma] And this smm can sometimes, but not always, advance to active multiple myeloma. The image that comes to mind is a layer cake, of sorts.

Have you been diagnosed with active myeloma, and if so, what treatment are you going through? I am on round 5 of chemo for multiple myeloma.
