Multiple myeloma
On a routine test in June, my 59 y/o mother had slightly high serum globulins (4.7) and slightly high calcium (10.3)
So we did the following tests :-
1- Serum protein electrophoresis - Came back normal with no M spike
2- Serum FLC - Kappa - 33.1 (Ref- 3.3 to 19.4) - Slightly high
Lambda - 18.1 - Normal
Kappa/Lambda ratio - 1.83 (Ref- 0.26 to 1.65)
Her calcium is back to normal now (without medications). At present, her calcium is 8.9, Hb is 12.5, serum globulin is 3, creatinine is 0.75, urea is 25 and x rays have shown arthiristis. So she doesn't have anemia, hypercalcemia, kidney damage or bone lesions, as of now.
However, her kappa chains are elevated and kappa/lambda ratio is slightly high.
What is it pointing towards ? Could it be multiple myeloma ?

Armpit pain for 3 weeks
Hi - have right armpit pain sometimes radiating to hands and back for 3 weeks.Neck also heavy. Breast ultrasound done on August 18th was Birads 1 for pain in left breast. Shown to breast surgeon a week back who says muscle spasm after a pinch test. But have got no relief post muscle relaxant. Pain increased when I lift my hand over head or put hand behind head while sleeping. Should I ask for another ultrasound or does this seem to be a musoskeletal issue. No swelling or new lumps felt.
