Hi,I am Dr. Robert Galamaga (Hematologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am wondering if you can help. My Dad has a high protein count in his blood and has been having blood tests for the past couple of months. Last week he has a bone scan- we are waiting the results of this. I just want to understand a bit more about what we are dealing with here. I understand there is MGUS and Myeloma. Before the results of the bone scan, is there a way to determine which of the two is more likely?
Hi, from your description its likely that you have high globuline count. It is seen in paraprotienemia like mgus or multiple myeloma. you need to go for protein electrophoresis. according to the level of monoclonal antibodis and your other sign and symptoms we can differentiate myeloma from mgus.go for it. thanks for using health care magic.
