Monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance. It can lead to MM so monitoring is recommended
I suffer sometimes depression, as I have to do efforts to put my mood in positive because I want to be perceived by my children and friends positive. I do not want to be a burden, and I push myself.
I sleep as possible and rest.
And do exercises that helps me in coping my pain.
I reduced sugar, and salt... I monitor my weight.
I have had MGUS for one year, checked every 3 months, just had a bone scan and everything looked good. Recent blood work showed Kappa/ Lambda ratio up a little to 2.11 and abnormal ptotirn band 1 of .3, my doctor thinks levels to low for a bone marrow biopsy, hope he is right. Will get checked in three months again
I was first diagnosed with MGUS in 2014. In late 2015 after a Hip aspiration I Was told it became full MM. In Jan. 2016 I had SCT. Currently, I am in remission with Revlimid. Waiting for a relapse . Praying for not.
I have smoldering MM was diagnosed 2 yrs ago. I go to UAMS in Little Rock every 6 months to have all my text repeated to make sure no change. Also I go to my Oncologist here in Al once a month for blood work
