My Wife Is Scheduled For A Pet Scan. Her Lamda Light Chain Remains High. Latest Bone Marrow Biopsy Showed Some Monoclonal Plasma Cells.
Sounds like she will be getting a full body nuclear PET scan to determine any MM activity. She’ll get a nuclear dye injection and wait one hour before going in the tube. The dye will “light up” and show the doctors where, if any, the cancer is.
