I have Bence Jones and I'm over 4 1/2 years from diagnosis. I was treated with Velcade and had a SCT 12 months after diagnosis. I did have a slight rise in my Lambda and a drop in my ratio 3 months ago, but I don;t physically have any symptoms. I have test next week and that will tell me where I'm at.
I was 70 when diagnosed.
