Coping and support
You can't control whether MGUS will lead to something more serious. But you can control many aspects of your health. Try to:
- Stick to your checkup schedule. Diagnosing a serious condition, such as cancer, in the early stages may improve your treatment outcomes.
- Follow a healthy lifestyle. You can reduce your risk of developing conditions unrelated to MGUS by eating a variety of fruits and vegetables, getting enough exercise and sleep, and reducing stress.
