Any Treatment For Poly Clonal Gammopathy With History Of Fatty Liver/UTI/diverticulitis?

I have been diagnosed with a blood disorder. Poly Clonal Gammopathy. I have struggled with multiple infections of UTI and Diverticulitis. My liver functions are stable, tho my history is fatty liver for years, without lots of concern from most surgeons.(Had a near death experience from Hep B 1976.) I know an outcome could be potentially Lymphoma, ( which is in my family history). Is there a treatment? My first Hemo appt is April 1. Thanks, Marianne McCollam. Hashtag/freaking out.

Hi Marianne. Poly clonal gammopathy is not something that you should freak out over. It is just an exaggerated response of the body to any stress. However, this diagnosis is tricky and difficult to make. So, be certain of the diagnosis and if it indeed is so, then nothing to worry about. Please be sure it is not a condition called multiple myeloma.
