• X 2 years
• RS is a 68 y.o. male presented to ED after falling while
taking down holiday lights. In the ED, x-rays confirmed
he had broken his right hip. He was A&O x3 with no
other signs of trauma or bleeding. Other past medical
history includes HTN for which he is on lisinopril and
Type 2 DM controlled with diet. Labs were as follows:
– Hemoglobin: 88.9 9 gm/dL
– Serum creatinine: 1.7 mg/dL
– Calcium: 11.9 mg/dL
– Albumin: 1.8 g/dL
– β2microglobulin: 3.3 mcg/mL
– Urine analysis= urine protein= M protein spike of IgA
– Bone marrow = 19% plasma cells
– Skeletal survey= multiple lytic lesions
