Serum -tiny igm kappa monoclonal protein b2 region, urine - tiny igm k paraproteinemia in gamma region. was a mistake made or is lab normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Monoclonal: •multiple myeloma (g>a>m>e, d) •primary macroglobulinemia (waldenstrøm’s, igm) •monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (mgus) (converts at 2% per year to myeloma) •miscellaneous conditions •(converts at 2% per year to myeloma) these all have to be thought of by the hematologist.

Serum immunofixation says IgM kappa in beta2, but urine immunofixation says small discrete band noted in gamma region, no m protein. Is this mgus?
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
I got bloodwork done and this was the result: IMMUNOFIXATION SERUM Monoclonal protein identified as faint IgM kappa. What does this mean? Thank you
Had labs done and my Kappa Free levels are 2.49 mg/dL , Lambda Free levels are 1.50 mg/Dl and my ratio is 1.66. Labs showed no serum monoclonal protein and other proteins Alpha1/2,A1,A2,Beta,Gamma came back normal. Should I be concerned?
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.
