Full body DEXA is paid by Medicare and Supplemental? I know full body MRI is not. I would consider this over full body X-ray. Thanks.
Working towards the bone density drugs. So many women have had very serious SE.
MGUS I tell people is like being a no kaboom bomb, maybe slightly goes kaboom or completely kaboom.
Waiting game for sure. I intend to wait confidently and with much prayer.
Thanks to everyone here on this thread. My heart is with y’all.

I've read and have been told that only about 1% of people diagnosed with MGUS will actually get full blown Multiple Myeloma, which I've been seeing my oncologist for 16 months. However, in February 2025 I was diagnosed with Mycosis Fungoides and then told last month that I was in remission. I'm going nuts because I've always had "weird" labs since I was a kid and many autoimmune disorders so sometimes I think they are all causing havoc with labs. I get labs again in 2 days and see my oncologist a week later so I hope I get more answers. I hate this hurry up and wait--you may have ???? -- then you have something else ??? -- then maybe you don't. I am the type of person who just wants answers and then I deal with it, but I feel that all the things I've been doing have either caused a "miracle" like my PCP said or we still don't have an answer so I decided to just keep doing what I've been doing and what my doc says and try not to be anxious about the unknown. When I think how far science has gone from when I was a kid and my friend got bruises and was dead 2 weeks later from Leukemia and now many people survive all types of cancer, I feel hopeful.
