Thanks, John, for the suggestions on the websites and groups. I'll definitely look at them.
My doctor, which at this point would be the neurologist, doesn't really answer questions, so I don't know what she thinks about a connection between neuropathy and the low M Protein level. All she did was make a note on the lab report that she would refer me to a hematologist. I had to do my own research, as most of us do, to even find out what the M Protein level meant. Hopefully, I will be seeing the hematologist this coming week. I don't know that he will be able to shed any light on it but I have to at least go and ask questions.
Thanks so much for your welcoming and encourging words!

If there is one thing that I have learned is keep asking questions of your doctor. I think they like to help if they have the answers. Don't want to overload you but there is a site I really like because I had the opportunity to meet the doctor, Victor Montori, that cofounded the site - The Patient Revolution. He has some great tools for preparing questions for an upcoming appointment -- https://www.patientrevolution.org/tools
