Thank you for the encouragement. No BMB scheduled yet. I just had the blood test done a few days ago as I have been struggling with gastritis and elevated liver enzymes for about 10 days. I had a CT scan that showed no evidence of cancer in my liver or other main abdominal organs, but this blood test has thrown me off. I don't think the M-spike is connected to the gastritis, which is getting incrementally better. I suspect that my primary doctor will be referring me to a hematologist for deeper evaluation of the M-spike and free kappa chains.

Normal is good, eh? Although there are many members who can give some great anecdotal information, you’re going to get you definitive information from your hematologist/oncologist. It is frustrating to wait and now that “My Chart” is available online, we are prompted to speculate on our own.
Have you gotten this referral and appointment scheduled yet? Many of us live quite well with MGUS if that’s what is eventually diagnosed. I remember those anxious days and how literally sick with worry I was. I hope this period is short for you. We’ve all been there. Will you let me know how this is going for you?
