I have had MGUS also- 4 years now with minor fluctuations with low numbers and see my oncologist yearly now.
Can you think of anything you did to improve your lab results? Congratulations on the improvement, btw!

I reduced both my protein and carbohydrate consumption levels each day. Our body is not doing well with protein absorption. Avoiding vitamin B12.

I was diagnosed with MGUS at 47. I am now 72. My numbers remain fairly consistent with some fluctuation. Just saw my oncologist. He said I'm doing great. I don't take supplements but have tried to reduce the pesticides in my food (since some research sees a correlation between pesticide exposure and MGUS). So I filter my water and buy only organic fruits and veggies. I go to a market that also has organic meats, milk and coffee. I eat no red meat. Helpful to check which foods have the most pesticides (i.e. apples). As you can see I've had it for a very long time. Of course, I have no idea if it helps but I like supporting local farmers and trying to keep my pesticide intake to a minimum. Nice have this space to share!
