Can someone please tell me what these letters are and how to ask the doctor for mine?  Any information you can give me will be greatly appreciated.              Thanks                        Diamy6 Tue, 27 Mar 2007 00:00:00 GMT  M proteins mean that you have pre cancer proteins in your blood.  Mgus can develp into Multiple myeloma.  If you don't take care of the MGUS.  Not everyone gets it quicly;Here are 2 links to go check out.
