What is the name of your state? MA

I have Multiple Myeloma. It is considered an incurable cancer but treatable. My group disability insurance company informed me I should contact them if there are any changes. My last checkup showed a decrease in my cancer. Should I inform the insurance adjuster about this blood test?What is the name of your state?

Congratulations on the decrease.

What, exactly, does your disability insurance document state about keeping the co apprised of medical developments ?
Are you required, under the policy, to report/update at certain times ?

You signed a medical info release form in order to get the disability paymt approved ... I'm sure they verify your status at regular intervals.
They have access to your Dr.'s records.

How long have you been receiving the disability insurance payments ?
Has your Dr. said whether you can return to work ?

The most important thing is that you are getting better.
Take care of yourself.

I cannot find anything about informing them about a change. I’ll keep looking.
Informing them about a change was a verbal statement from the claims adjuster.
I have been receiving LTD for 4 months
My doctor still considers me disabled.
This cancer has made my bones very weak. I can easily fracture my bones.

Dial, I think you're fine just continuing to take care of yourself.

I wouldn't contact the disability ins co.
They will check on your status at regular intervals (probably one-yr, two-yr and five-years).

It sounds as though you should only be concentrating on getting well.
I was stage 3B, then stage 4 in 1999.
I fought to go back to work as soon as I got out of a wheelchair; for me that worked.

For most people, relaxation, love, laughter, and prayers seem to work best for recovery.
I wish you much love, laughter and will add my prayers.
