Serum free light chain test shows normal kappa (8.7mg/dl), low lambda (3.80), high kap/lam ratio (2.31). Serum $ urine electrophoresis show no monoclonal protein, nor does serum immunofixation. Likely MGUS, myeloma, or admyloidosis? CBC/met panel ok.
I've had an electrophoresis test done, serum & urine. Results show a spike in the beta and gamma regions. No monoclonal protein. What does this mean? I have proteinuria and fsgs stage 3. I am 50
I have inconsistent tests that lean toward multiple myeloma or MGUS. First xray lytic lesion; globulin series serum & urine monoclonal positive to gamma; 24 hr electopherurine neg; beginning anemia; BUN off; other small abnormals. Bone survey neg.
Have cold feet and legs since December. Had EMG, many blood tests and just received a 1.68 Ratio, kappa 22.4 and Lambda 13.3. Immunofixation blood test negative. CBC, urine all good including sedimentary, protein. Can I still have MM or MGUS?
I had a serum immunofixation and serum electrophoresis run and the interpretation was suspicious of monoclonal gammopathy and IgG lambda. What does this mean? The beta and gamma globulin where at 0.6 and 0.7 g/dl?
