A member asked:

Can igm kappa light chain monoclonal gammopthy stay stable for 10 years or more?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

MGUS: Many monoclonal gammopathies can be stable for many years. The only way to know is have the immunofixation and several other tests performed periodically. A referral to the hematologist is appropriate here.
