Weekly polls of the Myeloma Beacon's readers on topics related to multiple myeloma. A new polls is posted every Wednesday.

For those of you with active multiple myeloma, were you first diagnosed with smoldering myeloma before your myeloma became active?

Poll ended at Wed Nov 16, 2011 10:57 am

No, I never was diagnosed with smoldering myeloma. When I was diagnosed with myeloma, it already was active (not smoldering).

Yes, before I was diagnosed with active myeloma, I had been diagnosed with smoldering myeloma. Eventually, my myeloma progressed from smoldering to active.

Weekly Poll - What Was Your First Myeloma Diagnosis?

by Beacon Staff on Wed Nov 09, 2011 10:57 am

It's Wednesday, so it must be time for another Myeloma Beacon "Weekly Poll."

This week's question focuses on whether or not people with active myeloma were first diagnosed with smoldering myeloma.

A few clarifications:

First, this question is only for readers who have active multiple myeloma (that is, not smoldering myeloma, and not MGUS).

Second, if you are a caregiver or family member of someone who has active myeloma, feel free to answer on their behalf

As always, feel free to post comments, thoughts, or feedback in the space below. They can be very useful to other readers (whether for information or just entertainment purposes).
