Hi i have mgus with an m spike of 9.7 is this good or bad my doctor ordered a bone marrow for the next day after my bloods came back with this serium?

Myeloma: With an m -spike of 9.7, I am concern that this is a multiple myeloma- not an mgus anymore. Go get your bone marrow biopsy and you also need to get a skeletal bone survey, and other blood work.
