    What is the definition of Multiple Myeloma?

    Multiple myeloma is a rare cancer that occurs in bone marrow (soft tissue inside bones) in white blood cells called plasma cells that usually produce antibodies (immunoglobulins) which help the body to fight infection. However, in multiple myeloma the plasma cells become cancerous, producing a protein known by several names, including monoclonal immunoglobulin, monoclonal protein (M-protein), M-spike, or paraprotein. The cancerous plasma cells fill up the bone marrow, eventually spreading to the outside of the bones and weakening them, causing bone fractures. The cancerous plasma cells additionally begin producing high levels of an antibody (immunoglobulin) that increases the viscosity (thickness) of the blood, leading to clotting, which can further cause kidney damage. While levels of one antibody increase, others drop, increasing the risk of infections. Red blood cell counts also drop, causing anemia, while blood calcium levels increase, leading to dehydration, constipation, and confusion.   Types of multiple myeloma include smoldering myeloma, which usually occurs without symptoms, and plasmacytoma, which is marked by abnormal plasma cells that occur in only one bone, causing pain. Multiple myeloma mainly occurs in older people over the age of 60, males, African Americans, people who are obese, and those with a family history of multiple myeloma, or who have been diagnosed with a condition known as monoclonal gammopathy of uncertain significance (MGUS; see more about this condition below.)

    What type of doctors treat multiple myeloma?    

    Multiple myeloma is managed by a team of specialists who bring different areas of expertise to provide comprehensive care: 

    • Hematologists are blood and bone experts who often lead multiple myeloma treatment, focusing on how the disease affects blood and bone marrow. 
    • Oncologists are cancer specialists who manage chemotherapy and other treatments aimed at controlling multiple myeloma. 
    • Radiologists conduct imaging tests to monitor the disease and assess any spread or bone involvement. 
    • Orthopedic surgeons are sometimes consulted to address bone damage and fractures caused by multiple myeloma. 

    How does multiple myeloma progress?   

    Multiple myeloma typically progresses through stages, starting with the early “smoldering” phase, where symptoms are mild or not present. Over time, the disease may progress to active multiple myeloma, where symptoms like bone pain, fatigue, and frequent infections appear. As the disease advances, it affects more areas in the body, causing further damage to bones and organs. Treatment can slow progression, but multiple myeloma is generally considered a chronic condition, requiring ongoing care and monitoring. 

    How is multiple myeloma treated? 

    Treatment usually involves a combination of therapies tailored to the individual based on age, health, and stage of multiple myeloma. 

    • Chemotherapy uses drugs to target and kill cancer cells, helping to control the disease. 
    • Immunotherapy strengthens the immune system’s ability to fight the cancer, using medications that target myeloma cells. 
    • Stem Cell Transplant restores healthy blood cells by replacing damaged bone marrow, often following high-dose chemotherapy. 
    • Radiation Therapy targets specific bone lesions to reduce pain and prevent fractures. 

    What is the life expectancy of someone with multiple myeloma? 

    Survival rates for multiple myeloma can vary widely based on factors like age, overall health, what stage the multiple myeloma is in, and how well the cancer responds to treatment. When diagnosed during the early stages, the prognosis is generally more favorable. Thanks to advances in treatments, many people live several years after diagnosis. New therapies are constantly improving outcomes, offering hope for longer survival and a better quality of life. 

    When should I see a Multiple Myeloma doctor near Elgin, IL?

    There are various reasons why you may want to see a specialist, such as: 

    • Your primary care provider recommends it. 
    • Your condition requires expert knowledge and specialized care. 
    • Your symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment. 
    • You need specialized testing or procedures. 
    • You want a second opinion.  

    What should I consider when choosing a Multiple Myeloma doctor near Elgin, IL?

    It’s important to see a provider with expertise in your specific condition. Each provider profile in MediFind’s doctor database includes information on which conditions they treat, years of experience, research contributions, languages spoken, insurance plans accepted, and more.  

    How does MediFind rank Multiple Myeloma doctors near Elgin, IL?

    MediFind’s rankings are based on a variety of data sources, such as the number of articles a doctor has published in medical journals, participation in clinical trials and industry conferences, as well as the number of patients that provider sees for a given condition. Note that MediFind’s provider database is not based on user reviews, and providers do not pay to be included in the database. 

    What types of insurance are accepted by Multiple Myeloma doctors near Elgin, IL?

    Most profiles in MediFind’s doctor database include a list of insurance plans accepted by that provider. However, it’s a good idea to contact the provider’s office to make sure they still accept your insurance, then doublecheck by contacting your insurance plan to confirm they’re in network. 

    How can I book an appointment online with a Multiple Myeloma doctor near Elgin, IL?

    MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile. If the schedule option is not available for a provider, tap the red “Show Phone Number” button on their profile to get their contact information. If you prefer to find providers who offer online scheduling, select “Schedules online” under the “Availability” category of the filter feature on the left side of the Multiple Myeloma doctor search results page. 

    Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Multiple Myeloma doctor?

    Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.   

    How can I prepare for my appointment with a Multiple Myeloma doctor near Elgin, IL?

    Prepare for your appointment by gathering the following items: 

    • Copies of medical records (dating back at least one year) 
    • Your medical history, including illnesses, medical conditions, surgeries, and other doctors you see 
    • Family history of disease 
    • List of current prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal remedies or supplements including names and doses 
    • Allergies to medications, food, latex, insects, etc.  
    • List of questions and concerns 
    • Your insurance card 

    You might also contact the provider’s office to see if they offer transportation or childcare services or if you’re allowed to bring a loved one for support or to take notes during your visit. 

    What questions should I ask my Multiple Myeloma doctor?

    Here are some sample questions: 

    • Can you explain in simple terms what this condition is and how it’s treated? 
    • What symptoms or side effects should I watch for? 
    • What tests will be involved, and when can I expect results? 
    • Are there other specialists I need to see? 
    • What’s the best way to reach you if I have follow-up questions? 

    How can I learn about the latest clinical trials and research advances my Multiple Myeloma doctor may know about?

    MediFind’s Clinical Trials tool asks you a series of questions to help you narrow down your search by health condition, age, gender, location, how far you’re willing to travel, and more. Each question you answer filters down the number of trials until you find the ones that are most relevant to you. 

    MediFind’s Latest Advances tool features summaries of recent articles published in medical journals. We use cutting-edge technology to scour medical publication databases for the latest research advancements on any given condition, then we simplify this information in a way that’s useful and easy to understand. 

    Can I filter my search to show male or female Multiple Myeloma doctors near Elgin, IL?

    Look for the filter feature on the left side of the Multiple Myeloma doctor search results page. Select “Female” or “Male” under the “Gender” category to search for female or male providers exclusively. If the “Any” option is selected, it will pull results for both male and female providers. 

    Can I filter my search to find a Multiple Myeloma doctor that offers video calls?

    Look for the filter feature on the left-side of the Multiple Myeloma doctor search results page. Select “Offers telehealth visits” under the Availability category to search for providers who offer virtual appointments (video calls).
