Hi @emurrell65, I know how worrisome it is to potentially have a new health diagnosis. As you can see you’re not alone if the tests do show you have MGUS. I just wanted to make sure you saw this very recent comment from @susanh824 to @hels about her diagnosis with MGUS 10 years ago. It’s very encouraging to anyone diagnosed with MGUS. https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/830721/

I’m sure you’re counting the days until April 11. As a veteran/survivor of an aggressive blood cancer, my suggestion is to stay positive and find happy distractions. Read, watch movies, take walks, play with your favorite hobbies, go to lunch with friends, etc… indulge in moments of normalcy instead of focusing on “what ifs”. This will keep your spirits elevated and help you through the anxiety of waiting.
What are some of your favorite pastimes?
