Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have M spike of 0.6
For myeloma diagnosis Criteria for M spike is more then 3.

It just means you have slightly high protein with no other clinical abnormality.
Many person with MGUS has no problem and they live healthy life.
But few of them are later on developed myeloma. So it can considered as pre malignant condition. However nothing to worry about that.
You should check your hemoglobin, creatinine, calcium and bony lesion.
If you don't have any abnormality in other testing then nothing to worry. Just be relaxed. No treatment is required. Just go for regular follow up according to advise.
Consult your hematologist once and check for routine tests. Don't worry much about that.
