It gets easier as time passes to deal with the diagnosis, to understand the plusses in knowing. We live longer being actively monitored.
Any other cancers are caught earlier as well as myeloma if we ever progress to that point which is a huge positive. Early treatment helps!!

Teresa you hit the nail on the head for expressing my perspective. I’m grateful that I get quarterly blood analysis both to monitor the MGUS, but also my overall health. Who gets that kind of information quarterly?
The trick for me has been to relax and have confidence that my medical providers are paying attention.
Additionally, my doc keeps me appraised of treatment advances in the event my MGUS progresses. That inspires both hope and confidence. The statistics are on our side. Data rocks.
Have a happy holiday.
