@cdeldeo IgE is an immunoglobulin that often is related to allergies. It is very rarely associated with MGUS. Have you had any testing by an immunologist regarding allergies? I recall a long time ago, my mother going through allergy testing, and the only thing she was not allergic to was her cat!

I went to allergist at Mayo after the IgE was noted to be so elevated..but do not have allergies. I did grow up near DuPont plant years ago and wonder if the fumes from that are in anyway connected to my blood work. It is a mystery...and every year my IgE continues to be in a very elevated range.
