How long can you live with stage 3 myeloma?

Myeloma stage III means that the plasma albumin concentration of myeloma patients is less than 25g/L and β2-microglobulin concentration is more than 5.5mg/L. Myeloma stage III is also the late stage of myeloma patients, and the average survival period of myeloma stage III patients is generally about 1 year. Because multiple myeloma is a malignant tumor of the plasma cell system, the normal hematopoietic function is destroyed due to the malignant transformation of plasma cells that proliferate disorderly in the bone marrow. At the same time, patients are often accompanied by specific pathological changes such as bone damage and kidney damage. At present, multiple myeloma is still an incurable tumor, and although the disease progresses slowly, patients often die due to renal impairment and bleeding and infection if complicated by kidney damage or co-infection. Therefore, the average survival period of patients with stage III myeloma is about 1 year.
