I sent them to you via the email because I couldn’t send here.

Basically blood test 1 has esr 10 and 6 weeks later was 21

Total protein in first test was 81 and 6 week later 84

The globulin went from 31 to 34

In those 6 weeks I got on a pretty heavy protein diet for training purposes and I also forgot to fast that morning of the second exam and had a smoothie with protein powder. Not sure if any of this plays a role

Detailed Answer:
Hi

A high-protein diet doesn't cause high blood protein. In my opinion those test results are from dehydration or some kind of infection viral or bacterial.

Did you suffer from other health condition?

Did you see the pics I emailed of both blood tests?

No infections or other health problems other than I had a few swollen gums that would bleeed on their own near a bridge I had cause gingivitis had built up there and needed to see a dentist. The rest of my gums didn’t bleed just those near the bridge.

Could it be multiple myeloma at an early stage or something like that ? Every time I put high protein in blood on google that’s all I get. That high blood protein is the first thing people get

Detailed Answer:
As I said you before I don’t think that you should worry about multiple myeloma.

There are a lot of tests for diagnosis of this condition like total proteins, immunoglobulin ,biopsy ,blood counts etc
In my opinion your swelling gum it’s not related too myeloma.I will suggest you to consult your dentist, also to eat more vegetables .
Repeat your exams after 4 weeks in absence of strong activity like different sports

Should I do those tests for multiple myeloma?

Okay so I should play more sports, eat more veggies and repeat CBC blood test in 4 weeks

Do you think the issue with my gum could have raised the protein, globulin and esr in 6 weeeks?
