What form of monitoring do drs use on a person who has multiple myloma ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The "bad" protein: In multiple myeloma can take several forms. Can be followed in specific cases in blood or urine. There is also a blood test called free light chains, and the number of plasma cells in the bone marrow can also be a barometer of disease activity.
