If this helps, I wass diagnosed ten years ago and took it very seriously, My oncologist/hematologist, after taking dozens of tests, includingmy urine and a bone marrow biopsy, said I'll see St. Peter from something else, not MGUS.

I see him once a year (my doc, not St. Peter at the pearly gates).

@greenlantern Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. It's good to hear from someone who has has a long-term MGUS case and is still going strong!

Do you get testing done at that yearly appointment? Have you seen any trends?

I’ve had it for few years now, and my levels are so low that I only have to see my oncologist hematologist yearly now.
I too was told my chances of getting myeloma was very slim.
With everything else I have going on (CIDP) that made me less stressed.
Bad enough I’m numb in both feet,and my r hand.
Can’t walk without cane or walker, my balance is so bad.
Have been going through this for 13 years now.
Really effects my quality of life.
