I was just diagnosed with MGUS after routine blood work and then some more. I have been googling and reading everything I can. My Kappa/lamda ratio is 38.91,my IGA is low and my IGG is high, IGM is normal. All my protein levels seemed to have jumped up in the last month which may indicate infection and inflammation. I didn't get to see a hematologist but the nurse really wants me to get a bone biopsy. I feel like this could give a false baseline-having read several entries here I am not sure what to do. Thanks for any insights.

Thank you for your answer, I do feel quite anxious. I have always been a healthy person and basically had very little interaction with the medical profession, pretty much nothing more than check ups and vaccinations, never even had surgery. I am waiting to hear back from my doctor about the referral to a hematologist but it seems like more often than not one sees a nurse a few times before a doctor. I will keep on this
