Hi Powerdrivehp,

Do you have any specific questions about your results? Or is there anything in particular you wanted people to notice about them?

Yes this test KAPPA LIGHT CHAIN, FREE 3.30-19.40 MG/L 23.71

I am concerned about the 23.71 figure. It is out of range on all three tests.

What does it mean?

Also what is the threshold for this test to get a transplant using my own cells?

MONOCLONAL BAND OBSERVED, SERPLAS 0.4

How far do I have to go - 0.0?


Thank you in advance
