@laurinea Welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. We have moved your question over to a discussion already here, so others may see your post!

Getting a diagnosis of MGUS often comes at a time when other things are being investigated. Those tests will show a rise in M protein in the blood, and prompt further investigation.

I daresay hearing a diagnosis of MGUS, when you don't expect anything, can cause anxiety and stress. And those can manifest in some of the symptoms you are speaking of. I know it has been that way with me!

@cheft @pmm and others will want to chime in and tell you their stories, also.

Make a cuppa tea, and pull yourself up to the table. We're here for you!

Thank you for reaching out. I had the symptoms mentioned before my diagnosis which is why they did the investigations. I just get a bit confused when pretty much everything I read about MGUS says no symptoms but obviously myself and others do have symptoms.
