@gingerw I have MGUS since I had a broken hip and replacement last year. M spike showed one time. Oncologist happy that blood work is normal. I am elderly at 84 but still competent. I have a doctorate in nursing. Yet I am very unsatisfied faith advice from MDs . All other pre cancer conditions do something or do some meds etc to prevent progression. Not MGUS.! MM is. Deadly cancer. Why no intervention at MGUS. Also thoughts on Tumeric.. Thanks Chris Malloy

@sunsetchris The rate that MGUS may advance into smoldering multiple myeloma, and then into multiple myeloma, is pretty slow, for the vast majority of people. There are many forms of myeloma, that is why it is called "multiple". And another reason why there is no set protocol to waylay the progression, as it is many-pronged. Does that make sense? It is like finding a needle in a haystack.
Glad to hear your blood values are normal.
