I Was Diagnosed With Smoldering Multiple Myeloma 3 Months Ago. I Have A Very Confusing Dilemma I'm Dealing With. I Have Had A Bad Back They
attributed to D.D.D. lately I've been getting such bad pain & spasms in my lower back I've questioned whether it could be from my S.M.M. My oncologist/hematologist says there's no way.

I know no one knows the exact cause, and it’s probably from a combination of factors, but I can’t help but wonder!
I don’t have a clue as to how or why I have mm. I was in the hospital for two weeks before the doctors made the diagnosis. I don’t recall anyone in my family having cancer of any kind.
