@oliviahutson Good morning and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect! I’m really sorry to hear about your diagnosis. It can be a real bummer to get a disease that stops you in your tracks. I know because i used to love to bike ride and now I can’t.
https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/mgus/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20352367. When you read this information from Mayo Clinic, you’ll see that some doctors recommend chemotherapy and others don’t.
Let’s ask these members if they can help @2012can. @dianegrant @gingerw @pmm.
Ask the docs, on your next visit, ‘why did you choose this treatment.’ Sound like a good idea?

Thank you for responding! I see my local hematologist today. I was at Mayo all week last week. My Mayo doc just said “best of luck to you”. I was shocked.
I wonder why some with MGUS require chemo and some do not.

Thank you again! 🙏
