Dear Patty, I cannot express how much I needed that today. I have gotten into terrible habits with googling and have ended up in a mess. Your very kind and wise words are just what I needed to hear. From the bottom of my heart thank you 😊

@nick86 Exactly what @pmm said! MGUS is not a death sentence. I did not follow the normal course of things, but then I never have, so using my example is a poor thing to look at. MGUS in 2017, followed by smoldering myeloma in 2018, and myeloma in 2019. As my oncologist and I say, "I am an overachiever"!

Do not go down the Dr. Google rabbit hole! It will lead to sleepless nights and hours-long searches on the internet, cycling through some unreliable sources for information. We are here to support you, answer your questions, and although we are not medical doctors nor able to give medical advice, we will tell you our experience. Some of it will give you a head nod as you relate to it, other info won't. And that's okay.
