jojomac23, I suspect that, like me, most people who haven't encountered this won't know what MGUS is. Please can you tell us the full name so that we have some chance of understanding :)

Sure . I didn't know what it was until diagnosed. It is Monoclonal Gammopathy of Unknown significance

It is a protein that develops in the bone marrow and in a very small amount of people can develop into blood cancer
