Neuropathy in MGUS: Periphral neuropathy is common in gammopathies. If just sensory (numbness/tingling) we follow it or treat symptoms. If there is motor involvement (muscle weakness) it may need treatment. Risk of converson to a bone marrow disease is about 1% per year. You need to be followed by a neurologist/rheumatologist (if interested in neuropathies). MGUS means monoclonal gammopathy of unknown signifcance.

I took a Immunofixation serum test in December and it was negative. I took it again in January and February. The IFE interpretation says: IgG kappa monoclonal band present. A faint monoclonal free lambda light chain is detected. Do I have cancer?
Is a free light chain kappa/lambda ratio of 13 relatively high or just a touch high, with abnormal monoclonal protein anti IgG and anti lambda? Under medical care. Just curious before follow up. Not expecting diagnosis. Positive Ana 1:320 homogeneous?
Hema repeated bloodwork after monoclonal IGA lambda found. In one month, m-protein went from 8.5 g/l to 11.4. Is this jump significant? Other values remain out of range with IGA high & IGG, IGM low. Low gamma as well. CBC values ok and no BenceJones?
I had an IFE test done. The results stated. One trace IgG Lambda monoclonal protein migrating in the GAMMA region. Reference range: No monoclonal proteins detected. My rheumatologist said that the results were normal but didnt explain the meaning?
Kappa/lambda FLC ratio high (2.75) w/ normal K(10.21mg/dl) & low L(3.68mg/dl). Hem-onc unsure if ratio implies K monoclonality since serum/urine IFE ok & neither chain is elevated. Could monoclonal K be suppressing L? IgA a bit high IgG &IgM a bitlow
