Classic clinical findings of multiple myeloma include: bone pain, hypercalcemia, chronic renal insufficiency, anemia, positive serum/urine IgM, IgG/IgA M spike on SPEP, positive urine Ig light chains, and increased serum beta-2-microglobulin; all of which were present in our patient except for hypercalcemia.

Exclusion criteria included individuals with end stage kidney disease [25], a history of urinary tract infection in the one month preceding the interview, renal ultrasound features suggestive of structural urinary tract abnormalities [26], diseases associated with increased serum beta-2-microglobulin (HIV disease [27], lymphomas, multiple myeloma, and connective tissue disease [28]), and history of aminoglycoside use in the two weeks preceding the day of the interview [26].

These expressed genes which improve quality of milk are "immunoglobulins," "MHC," and "beta-2-microglobulin." Because lactation begins few weeks before parturition [28] and we choose sequenced cDNA clones randomly, these putative genes are found approximately at the same rate in prenatal and postnatal ESTs.
