Hi Bob, my M-spike runs from .8 to 1.0 month to month and has not changed any in last 18 months. My Myeloma specialist at UAB Birmingham says that is ok, that consistency is the main concern, so I try not to dwell on it so hope this helps answer your question. Hang in there with the rest of us and do fun things!!!

Bob G, I don’t know if there is a range, I know that any M Spike is abnormal, I believe anything above a .30 to be Myeloma. The amount of the protein - the (immunoglobulin) can change but the type such as the IGg or IGa etc doesn't change. Ask your doctor and let me know his answer, Thanks! Love, Marcia
