Hi all,

I am Jane from the UK. Diagnosed with MGUS in July 2002 at age 37. Levels unstable and rising. My MGUS is IGg Kappa type. In five days I get more test results, I had extra tests done due to recurrent infections and rising numbers. MGUS is a precancerous condition which can turn malignant over time and most cases will turn to Multiple Myeloma if they turn malignant at all, sometimes it never turns malignant and causes no problems.

Thanks for reading my brief introduction
Love Jane x

Hi Jane and welcome to the CancerForums. While I have never heard of MGUS, I am very familiar with Multiple Myeloma. Let us hope that your condition remains benign.
