Severe Aortic Stenosis and symptomatic myeloma

Very worried now. On Monday 13th January I have my initial meeting with the TAVI team. Obviously expecting my TAVI to be done soon.I had another health issue too. The haematologist rang me today and suspects I may have symptomatic myeloma. I need a bone marrow biopsy to confirm.

I hope this doesn't stop the TAVI. I'm so worried.

So very sorry to hear this news. I would make an appointment with cancer nurse and maybe TAVI nurse to discuss this, I don't think it's something we can answer here. Perhaps The Roy Castle Cancer Foundation can help or Cancer Research or of course McMillan. I hope all goes well.

I have my initial meeting with TAVI team this coming Monday. So, of course, this will come up in discussion. I posted on here as someone else may have gone through something similar.

What has annoyed me is that I should have had the bone marrow biopsy to confirm if myeloma back in late November. I had it cancelled TWICE.

But it is what it is. I will know more on Monday

Sadly many procedures are cancelled everyday but this seems like a serious thing to cancel.

Not what you're looking for?
