I also was diagnosed with Mgus IgG lamda in June 2023. My IgG is 2500 and IgA is 16. Last year my abnormal protein band increased from 1.6 g/dl to 2.0 and my gamma globulin increased from 1.8 g/dl to 2.1 in January. I also started taking Tumeric in January and when i was tested in April my levels came down slightly. I am scheduled for a bone marrow biopsy on May 6 to get an indication of my plasma levels. I have low rbc and low immune system. I am hopeful that having a baseline can ease the feelings that arise from not knowing.

I would like (and am going to get) a baseline via bmb as well. Also a whole body CT to evaluate for bone lesions. I saw a cancer specialist who treats MGUS and Myeloma patients who has ordered these for me. I’m more of a need to know type person. I’ve read too much about the effects of MGUS (for some people) to sit without knowing. Maybe afterwards I can comfortably take the sit and wait approach. I don’t think there is a wrong way to decide, each person can make their own informed decision. I do appreciate hearing other people’s experiences on this forum, it helps.
