Brief Answer:
raised globulin protein could be due to gammopathy, need SPE.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on HealthcareMagic.

I understand from your query that there is a rise of globin protein in blood and you doctor has advised you to take tests to rule out the possibility of cancer.

Raised globulin protein could be due to a hematological disorder called gammopathy.
Hence I'd advise you to take up serum protein electrophoresis (SPE) and get back with the report.

Feel free to ask further.

Thanks and take care
Dr.Shailja Puri
