A member asked:

Y total portin 8.2 normal to 8.3 albumin 3.8 and normal to 4.8 mean globulin is high could it be to multiple myeloma?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not necessarily: In most cases of elevated globulin, no multiple myeloma is present. Globulin elevation is often non-specific and can be present in cases of inflammation such as colds, infections, etc. To rule in multiple myeloma, there must be certain globulin fractions present. Electrophoresis of the blood and/or urine will be able to determine that.
