Could we talk about anxiety with MGUS

So here is my dilemma. I’m one of those unfortunate SMM patients. Yes most people will never develop into this but I have. I am dealing with two doctors in over seeing my care. I have one here close to where I live. The other one is at Mayo in Rochester. My gut tells me I would get better care at Mayo but it is 1 1/2 hour away. The doctor the one close by is head of the cancer center but has little in dealing with MM. If my condition goes south it’s nice to have the convenience of doctor being close. But clinical trials I’m interested in are all at Mayo. For now I am stable. In many cases SMM can last for years or life. Just thought I would throw this out there for input. Thanks

I would get care at Mayo. Their myeloma doctors are the experts.
I have MGUS and I drive 1350 miles one way for care and have been doing this since 2002.
