Myeloma is monitored through many different lab values, and the meaning of 16.0 can vary quite a bit depending on which test it comes from. Once there's a clearer picture of what's being measured, a much more helpful answer can be provided!

In the meantime, it's always a good idea to discuss any lab results directly with your care team, as they can interpret results in the context of your full health history.
