I was diagnosed with MGUS fall 2015. This was accidentally found in a blood test when the hematologist was looking for the reason I was having unexplained roving pain - basically all over the body. My rheumatoid factor was quite high but the rheumatoid doctor said I didn't have rheumatoid arthritis after he examined he; thus being referred to a hematologist. Since then, I have annual monoclonal protein study tests sent to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester. This year's test was a bit different from all the past tests. Have they changed the way testing is done. My main question is did you find taking antihistamines and antacids had an affect on MGUS? My IgA was 87 in Oct '24. My IgG Lambda is .385 which is high. I don't see this type test in previous testing.
