Ok, Is 1.80 Good For Lamda Free Light Chains ? In November It Was 17.7 Up From 11 In October
And is 0.34 kappa good? in December it was 0.2 alot of folks seem so more knowledgeable about tests
Netta, there are over 11 different types of myeloma. It's important to know which type you are. It will help interpret your labs. Maybe start a list of questions for your doctor💕
Netta, please ask for a printout of your lab work that is ordered by your oncologist every time they do your monthly doctor's labs. Keep them together in a loose-leaf binder organized by date. This will help you understand your improvement with your type of treatment. Here is an explanation of what should be on your lab result. It may be different if they use a different computer printout system. But this is how mine is set up. Lambda normal is between 5.7-26.3. On your Lab Report Printout, the current number should be in the first column with your former number in parentheses. Then the column that shows mg/L and then the normal numbers showing 5.7-26.3. Your Serum Kappa should be above it and the Kappa/Lambda Ratio,S should be below it. If it makes you have any questions, write them down like Donna suggested and talk with your oncologist ABOUT ANYTHING that you want clarified so that you are sure of your understanding about it. I have added you to my team. Welcome aboard, we walk the path together. NEVER feel like you are alone and no one knows what you are personally going through. We walk the same path and our strength gets better and better the more we realize THAT WE CAN COUNT ON OUR TEAM MATES. God Bless, "TEECE"
I sure will thank you for helping me
Netta it depends on what type of myeloma you have. They are both low. What is your ratio? It looks like your treatment is working
Well She did not call me in for an earlier visit ... i see her 7th of feb ,,i will be asking what type of myloma i have. I didn't know to ask this , i just thought myloma was myloma which i had never heard of till i was told i had it. I knew one of my team members would know more about tests then i do . Thank you Donna so much i will definitely be sharing what i find out from my dr im praying its good news ive been off and on revlimid with different dosages and lots of not good labs since September been a long few months.
What Were Your Kappa Levels At The Highest Point Before Treatment? What Was Your Highest K/L Ratio? Thank You, Curt ( Newfoundland )
What Does It Mean When Your Labs Results Come Back Saying Your Kappa Lambda Light Chain Is High
Immunoglobulin G, A, & M Ranges Are Normal. Immunofixation Serum Is Normal. KAPPA Light Chain 31.6 Lambda 17.1 & Kappa/Lambda Ratio1.85.
