So the support groups tell me that the "M - Spike" alone is indicative of an auto immune process. Not sure what that means but I am more and more suspecting that I had the Corona Virus over the New Years week and that said virus is the reason for these problems.
Why?
What I do have wrong is consistent with an infection - a viral infection.
- it is known that an M spike (alone) can happen with viral infections such as HIV or Hepatitis. Both I am pretty sure I don't have. But both are strong viruses.
- My WBC only remains low. Though this can be due to MGUS... typically it shouldn't be this low with such a low MGUS result. I also read someplace that in the absence of tests for corona virus they are looking at WBCs which typically come back low.
- My liver enzymes came back high recently. I was stumped at that and then someone suggested that liver enzymes can come back high due to infection. Later I looked it up and it is one of the signs of corona.
- It is well known that auto immune disorders are linked to starting after strong viruses such as Epstein Barr.
The only contra indicative factor is that since about fall of 2018 my WBC had dropped but not a lot. Going from 6.0 to 5.5. Currently it sits a 4.1 and during the illness in December it was a 3.2. Coronavirus has WBC under 4.0.
