Patti Scialfa , 71 , revealed in a new documentary that she was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in 2018 .

The E Street Band member has not been on stage since then.

The cancerous plasma cells build up in the bone marrow, leading to complications of the cancer.

The prognosis for multiple myeloma depends a lot on the stage of disease and how well someone responds to treatment.

Having this form of cancer also means patients need to be careful about getting infections.

The five-year survival rate for the cancer that hasn’t spread is nearly 50% .
