I've had Smoldering Myeloma for several years. It's slowly getting worse but my hematologist/oncologist says it may never cross the line into Multiple Myeloma. Some excellent people on here and web sites providing accurate information regarding this stage of the disease. Have you had a bone marrow biopsy along with your blood and urine analyses? It may never progress further. Many oncologists do not recommend treatment when one has Smoldering, they believe the side effects can be harsher than the effects of the disease. Plus there is no definitive evidence linking curing/slowing down the disease to treatment at this stage. Best of luck to you.
