Cynthia,
I started with MGUS and had a bad bone marrow biopsy, which they would not repeat. I changed doctors and got a new bone marrow biopsy which showed I was Smoldering. You don’t have to change doctors to get a second opinion, you just find a MM Specialist and send them your records and meet them on a Zoom call or meet them in person. I changed doctors because I did not have confidence in them. I love my doctor at UCLA. Your doctor should be happy you are getting a second opinion because doctors just want you to have the best treatment. I found a video about it and it said the same thing. No one’s feelings will be hurt.
