Is Low Hgb Sign Of Multiple Myeloma?
My mother has Hgb 10.3....not sure of her labs, indicating kidney function, but primary has sent her to oncologist,
who has scheduled her for iron transfusion. He said he will repeat Hgb in four weeks, following transfusion, then will determine if bone marrow biopsy needed......is this to diagnose multiple myeloma?
