I've been following your post about MGUS, which I also have. If you don't mind me asking what's a FLAC test?
I'm trying to keep as knowledgeable about this disease as I can comprehend. I called the Multiple Myeloma Foundation for more information & to get involved with group members with MGUS. They're very informative & pleasant to help us & are sending me alot of information to help myself personally & knowledge wise that my Oncologist didn't have time to answer.

@rockergirl143 Welcome to Mayo Clinic connect! I see you have been a long-time member and this is your first post.

I believe the reference is as to the Free Light Chain test. Here is news from the International Myeloma foundation about recent findings: https://www.myeloma.org/videos/icelands-istopmm-study-revises-definition-free-light-chains-serum-light-chain-monoclonal

You mention that your oncologist doesn't seem to have the time to answer questions for you. If I may, is he/she a hematologist/oncologist?
