I've had a leukepheresis done. It's physically taxing because you have to sit for hours with your elbows locked.

I have not had a single treatment after being diagnosed with smouldering IGA kappa multiple myeloma in June 2019.

Tim, you should only get treatment for smoldering myeloma as part of a clinical trial if you have high risk smoldering. You may never progress from smoldering myeloma to active myeloma, but you want to have a doc watching that for you. There are MM specialists in Australia if you need help.
