Brief Answer:
Elevated gamma globulins indicate bone marrow abnormality

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear.Thanks for your query.

I have thoroughly read your query and deeply understand your concern.

I would be glad to know if you have undergone plasmapheresis?If yes upload the report using the report tab on your page.

Gamma globulin is a part/fraction of globulins and hence elevated gamma globulin level has apparently contributed the elevated globulins.

Elevated gamma globulin levels are indicative of underlying bone marrow abnormality.Hence, I were to do a bone marrow biopsy and ask for histopathological examination to rule out underlying condition.

Await your reply soon.
