Dear 1oldsoul: After reading your message, I’m impressed with your positive attitude and the results of your effort with diet and exercise. I’m 82 years old, still think I’m 40 …was diagnosed with MGUS just last week and have been down and out about it. Having more negative thoughts than positives. I much like you had feelings of being unstable, reduced energy and find myself sitting more just contemplating. I had CT scans, MRI , PET scan and finally blood work by neurologist that found all panels normal but Mprotein abnormal. Took a few more blood tests and a 24 hour urine test that I was told was very remarkable because it showed ZERO Mprotein. So as of now..I’m told..no Mprotein, no anemia, no kidney disease..I’m to see them in 6 months. To me I find it very unbelievable that in 2024, the medical field has found no medication or treatment to address this.. ie it’s not 1824. Bottom line I’m trying to find a diet that adds antioxidants —food and drink…going to change my diet and start exercising more. Are you saying you had symptoms but no longer have them? You are feeling normal?? I feel weak and zonked out…your positive feedback will help me tremendously …how long have you had MGUS?? Looking forward and hoping to hear from you soon. Thanks so much. Bob
