Mgus and broken bones?

@kayeanna
Greetings, welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. Good gravy, 10 broken bones since Christmas? I certainly think your question about the relationship between MGUS and your bone vulnerability is a good one. What does your hematologist/oncologist say?
Your question about “what helps” with MGUS is a good one but there are many variables to consider. Like any other illness or blood abnormality in our case, a healthy diet and taking care of ourselves augments good medical care by exert specialists who monitor us for progression to smoldering or multiple myeloma. I get semiannual blood draws and CT scans to monitor for progression and ensure that I have no bone lesions. Some of our members do a Mediterranean or plant based diet with good results. Some take turmeric supplements…all best to be discussed with our physicians. There are so many variables, we are all different so what works well for one of us may not work that well for others due to innate difference in our physiology and co-existing conditions.
I sincerely hope that you have found a good oncologist/hematologist with whom you can consult. As patients, we have to advocate for ourselves and ask these questions. Sometimes you can get a telehealth appointment to talk to your doctor or an in person appointment. Write your questions down and make sure that all of them are answered before the end of the session.
Have you had this discussion with him or her? Has anyone explained to you why there may or may not be a connection between your bone vulnerability and MGUS?
