The medical community says that MGUS doesn't have symptoms - but they are clearly wrong. Many have symptoms and even now, the more enlightened doctors, admit there can be symptoms. Of course this makes some sense. You have an extra protein accumulating in your body: along with extra antibodies and extra free light chains. Your body is a BIG old junk pile.
The most common symptoms right now are neuropathy. MGUS and Neuropathy.
Other symptoms have included:
- Bone pain.
- Eye issues
- Renal issues (when more serious called MGRS).
So a lot of times people write everything to MGUS.. when, if they didn't know the had MGUS, they might not even notice it.
Don't even think about asking for disability with MGUS. The official line is that it has no symptoms so you won't be able to get disability for that. That is such a shame. Very clearly you can symptoms but will be forced to claim fibromyalgia.
