Hi Jeannie. You have a number of tests coming up so I do hope you find some answers for your hip pain and whether it’s related to your MGUS or not. As you’ve seen in the forum, quite a few MGUS patients have symptoms that doctor’s don’t feel are related but the correlation seems pretty coincidental. Many mysteries with blood diseases.

To answer your question, no, I didn’t have MGUS. My special treat was Acute Myeloid Leukemia…which comes with its own level of excitement. ☺️ I was dealing with that exactly 5 years ago right now, and so thankful it’s behind me. Lots of chemistry poured into me and a bone marrow transplant has brought me to a durable remission!

Let me know how your tests come out! It can take a week or so for the complete biopsy results to be reported.
