Hi and welcome to the plasma Cell neoplasm world. Your numbers to me (while not a doctor) are MGUS since your M-Spike is .5, once it gets towards 1.4 I would make sure a BMB is done as a baseline. They will check the involvement of the monoclonal cells, the (CTC) within the bone marrow.

I was diagnosed last week with SMM, but since I'm on prednisone for PMR, my blood work is somewhat understated. I'm doing a quick taper off prednisone over the next three months and then checking labs again.

What are the units? Each place/Lab uses different units
