Good evening doctors. Does immunofixation serum blood test with no monoclonal proteins found rule out multiple kidney myeloma? Is there a similar blood or urine test to rule out or rule in renal kidney amyloydosis?

My total protein had been increasing, so my dr had me test for multiple myeloma. Protein had come down to normal,no m-spike observed, everything normal except a slightly elevated kappa of 21.5 in serum (but normal in urine). Could I still have cancer?

My father 72, has serum creatinin from 1.8 to 2.5 but has no creatinin in 24h urine. Are kidneys ill? Which other tests to be done?

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

Hi Doc. How to compute my EGFR in kidney disease. My Creatinine Serum is 0.80 mg/dL, Female, 31 years old and Filipina. But my protein in urine test is 3+ and RBC in urine is 3+?

Good evening doctors. Is the immunofixation of the serum blood test which checks for monoclonal proteins the same as the urine test for amyloydosis which looks for light chain monoclonal?
