Friday, Feb. 9 Update

Hi everyone,

Rob had a PET scan yesterday, and we got results just a bit ago.  

It read, in part:

“Hypermetabolic expansile lytic lesion right third rib consistent with active myelomatous disease.”

This means myeloma has attacked Rob’s rib.  Rob’s first right rib was eaten away with myeloma the first time.

This also means that in addition to the blood showing myeloma being active (from the 3  lambda light chain spikes I mentioned earlier), it is now active in the bone.

The report also mentioned “lytic and lucent changes within the axial skeleton”–and we’ll get clarification what that means on Monday.

Positive side- there was just one spot noted, verses many the previous time, where he had it all over his body.

We will know more details on Monday, including the next plan of attack.

Thank you so much  for being here and for your support and love!!❤️
