@ladyrose74 now this is something that I was not aware of… Evidently there’s such a thing as a “transient M protein“ which seems to be associated with low levels of the M paraprotein cases.

Have you asked your hem/onc physician about this? What does he or she think?

My M spike was low and somehow after 18 yrs nothing shows. I have a para protein. I’m sort of confused as I know I am slightly anemic . I had a bone marrow over 18 yrs ago and is what it showed. Now a few months ago my oncologist/ hematologist said on blood tests , no sign of M spike any longer. I have another spot in a few months.
