What Does The Test Results Suggest?

My ALBUMIN is 3.8 the others total 3.2 for a 1.188 A/G Ratio...Good, Bad, or in the middle? Also, the ALPHA 1 is 0.1 (slightly low from the chart used). Docs are looking at Multiple Myeloma, based on an expected shadow image on my lower spine. Thoughts James

hello, dr. boskey gandhi is here, here your albumin is slightly lower but that doesn't mean, u have multiple myeloma, here u had not mention image, so i can't see your image, but confirmatory test for multiple myloma is protein electrophoresis. so if your doctor suspect, u should go for it for confirmation, all the best.
