Seek opinion from a: This is unusual way to make a diagnosis of multiple myeloma(mm). Typically we need to do a bone marrow biopsy and look for cancer cells in the marrow. These cells produce abnormal proteins(m protein) which will show up either in the blood(commonly) or in the urine. We use a test called protein electrophoresis. If these tests have not been done, seek a second opinion. Chemo will help to control mm.
