High IGM, RBC, Hemoglobin, Hematocrit and low WBC

Follow up:

Yes, it appears to be a CBC w/differential.  Would you like some of those numbers? I am taking no other drugs
(incidentally, am allergic to penicillins).   Doctor said he wanted to do the PE/IFE to identify the reason
for the elevated protein and check for indication of Multiple Myeloma.  The results state there was no M-spike
observed. However, Immunoglobulin M came back high, as I said.  Immunofixation result showed an apparent
Polyclonal Gammopathy; IGM - Kappa lambda typing appear increased. No fever or unusual symptoms since last
batch of tests run a couple of months ago, however, the blood counts have changed from the normal results from
a couple months ago.  I am experiencing pain and feeling of fullness that has been waking me up at night since
this batch of tests done last week. Perhaps spleen?  He also ordered an MRI for an apparent complex partial
seizure he believes I had in his office (thought it was blood sugar, but came back normal when he tested it
there) which I haven't had performed as of yet. -- Hepatitis B/C antigens, Thyroid Peroxidase,
Thyroglobulin antibodies, Lyme, and ANA all came back negative.  Rheumatoid factor, C-reactive tests done
prior to this (recently) were negative.  Complete metabolic panel, T-Cell activation, CD-8 subsets, T + B
Lymphocyte diff., Helper T- Lymph CD-4 and Kappa Lambda free light chains were also tested.  Any further
insights with this information?  I assume they cross-evaluate their findings with other specialists outside
the rheumatology dept., but will request a hematologist and/or infectious disease specialist, if I find that
they do not.  Thank you.

Sorry, I didn't specify where the pain was:  just below my left ribs, left/mid side of abdomen, hence
'spleen'.  Thanks.
