Hello again,
I posted some months ago I was diagnosed two years with MGUS/IGG Lambda subtype, which is approaching 10% from my biopsy in Feb. of this year. However, doctors did not look further to see that my bone marrow was stated to be moderately hypocellular, and the cellularity is 20%, which puts me to be an elderly person of 70+. I am 57 yrs. old. My erythroid is 19% (on the low end, but still in norm range). They stated if the erythroid falls out of the normal range, it would be anemia, but she did not specify. Now everyone (Dana Farber & my local oncologist) is on the alert and now want a repeat biopsy in February. My questions:
1. would I need a bone marrow transplant as I age or at some point?
2. If the erythroid does fall out of range, would it be considered Aplastic anemia or?
3. What other questions should I address with the doctors?
I want to make sure I address everything as they did not discuss the above with me when the report was first released.
