Well it wasn't what we were hoping for or even expected. Steve's M-spike went up from 0.9 to 1.1. There is one good number to report on and that is the other "marker" that is checked, the IGG continued to go down. The IGG is the plasma cell protein that has become monoclonal, cancerous. It went down from 1480 to 1300. Usually both markers go up or both go down, but this time one has increased and one has decreased?
I'm sure the doctor will have an understanding for why this has happened.
Yes, we are discouraged, and we are hoping this in an anomaly and not a sign of something bad. Please pray for good news at our next appointment.
God Bless you!
