Hi Cynthia Rose,
I haven't taken any anti-depressants, but I do have the lovely MGUS. Some positive things...? I'm still here, still healthy, and my levels are stable. You may be reassured to look up some of Dr. Robert Kyle's studies--he's with the Mayo Clinic and is the world leader in MGUS studies. I actually had the pleasure of speaking to him about my case, and he was able to reassure me, based on my test results, that my chances of moving into myeloma were very small. His main advice? To keep my body in outstanding physical condition, through diet, exercise, sleep, and hydration. He said if the time ever comes, I should be ready to fight as hard as I can and that people in peak condition seem to do quite well. Hope this lifts your spirits. Hang in there, Cynthia Rose. Things will settle down, once you have some time to adjust.

Hi
My name is Debbi I am 52 and I have just been diagnosed with MGUS IMg/ Kappa.
I am just on the boderline for having a bone marrow biopsy so we wait another 3 months for the labs. As with everyone I am scared and worried.
Thank you for Dr.Kyles name I will look into his articles. Which Mayo Clinic is he out of?
