My wife's doctor has been monitoring a certain plasma cell in her blood for about 10 years. It's a protein cell that either is
or causes bone cancer -known as multiple myeloma. This protein is measured in single digits. 10 years ago it was 2.
A year and a half ago it was 5. 3 months ago it was at 7. Her next test is toward the end of May. If this protein level
gets to 10 it is considered stage 1 multiple myeloma and treatment needs to start. Maybe be chemo - not really sure just yet.
There may be other options.
This really has me unsettled in spirit. I don't think she has done the research I have done so is unaware at this point
just how serious this can be.
Please pray for a lower protein number on next months test.
And if you will, please pray for me for peace in my heart.
Will post the next number in about 6 weeks
