Let us know how your appt goes! I'm right after you...mine is 1/18 with the myeloma specialist at Mayo FL. Lifting us both up for good news.
@michelle151 Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. It is always an interesting journey when we have health issues. Having multiple concerns sure can feel like we are climbing a steep mountain with little help along the way, right? Getting through day by day, we learn what will be best for us at any particular time. I appreciate you sharing your experiences on what is working for you. It's not an easy thing to accept slowing down and modifying our life, but giving up is not an option.
As you have proven, getting a diagnosis of MGUS, we can go many years without significant progression. The watch-and-wait approach is the most common to do, and I'm glad you have a specialist you trust; that's so important!
Good luck on that appointment in a few weeks. Will you come back and let us know what you find out, please?
