Brief Answer:
Normal result
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query
Your UPEP and SPEP results are within normal limits.
However your 24 hour protein is on the higher side which could be because of the tooth infection. Which means that your body is increasing the immunoglobulins to fight the tooth infection.
Please get the infection treated and ask for a repeat spep after 3 months.
I hope this helped, please get back to me for any further queries
