Blood has a large number of different protein called plasma protein. One type of protein called gamma globulin. Usually, different types of gamma globulin were made to fight infection. When most of the proteins that are made are all of the cells of the original gamma globulin proteins, monoclonal gammopathy is called. Targeted drug therapy can block proteins, enzymes and receptors that fuels cell growth. They can modify the mechanisms that turn cell growth on and off, or causing cancer cells to wither away. Still other targets mimic the immune system as antibodies that recognize and kill something that does not belong.
Despite what you may occasionally hear from the naysayers, there are actually some significant improvements in the way to both detect cancer early (usually more curable stage) and treat it after it is diagnosed. The most convenient time to communicate with your health care team during an appointment is scheduled. It allows you to discuss your concerns in person. However, there may be times in between appointments when you need to talk. It is often found by accident when laboratory tests are done for other reasons, such as to measure protein levels in the blood. Monoclonal antibodies can be attached to the nerve and causes numbness, tingling and weakness. Most of the increase in the number of cancer survivors alive today due to two factors.
Ask your doctor what to do if this happens. If your problem is not urgent, but you do not want to wait until the next scheduled appointment, ask to have a health care team member to call you. In many cases, this can be a nurse who will decide whether you need to also talk to your doctor. You can also write a list of questions to fax, email or letter to your health care team. They can then prepare a response when they have the time and call or email you to discuss further. If you have a medical emergency, call the hospital emergency room and your health care team right away. Do not try to wait until the next scheduled meeting.
