I first saw an M-Protein spike of .5 in April 2023, it has been in a range of .5 to .7 since. Three Oncologist follow-up since, most recently on October 4. RBC has always been normal. My free Kappa light chain has increased from 37.6 to 45.0 with the October 4 follow-up. my ratio is 2.56. My Oncologist who is very caring, actually moved my next follow-up to 9 months out from 6. He was not overly concerned with the free kappa light chains. What is your free kappa light chain value?

My Kappa light chain was 26.16 and ratio 1.58. I to have recheck of all the tests in 6 months. Got an appointment with my PCP and hope he will refer me to a new hematologist. Just trying to deal with the fatigue. This was diagnosed in June 2024. The oncologist I saw was contradictory, inappropriate, and dismissive. Thank you for your story. Trying to be thankful for the life I do have.
