Does anyone else have MGUS?

I'm not sure what "M spike" refers to.

If it's what I think it is, mine has fluctuated between 1.4 (4 years ago) to an average of 1.7 but the last one was 2.1

I'm hoping a hematologist can make sense of this, because I don't think my neurologist is the right guy for this.

Hi @canadabob. This informational article from verywellhealth.com may help give you a better understanding of MGUS and why the M protein plays a significant role in this blood/bone marrow disorder.

Long term, a hematologist would be a more appropriate specialist for you if there is any progression of your MGUS.
A hematologist is a doctor who specializes in researching, diagnosing, treating, and preventing blood disorders. It might be time to add a new doctor to your team, what do you think?
