Hi,
I am 33 and have had MGUS for 8 years. I have found out I am pregnant and I am concerned that this may effect the MGUS. What research I have read doesn't look positive. I am waiting to get an appointment with my heamotologist. Can anybody offer any advice even if it is negative as I feel I need to be well informed.
Thanks Kim

Dear Kim

I am sorry that, as yet, you have had no responses to your query. I hope you don?t mind me replying. My name is Ellen Watters and I am one of the Myeloma Information Specialists at Myeloma UK.

The issue of MGUS and pregnancy is one that has come up before on the Myeloma Infoline, so I have previously asked a number of haematologists for their advice on this issue.

The general consensus was that none of the haematologists that I spoke to were aware of any evidence or reports of MGUS progressing due to pregnancy. One haematologist confirmed that she knew many MGUS patients who went on to have safe pregnancies and healthy babies.

I hope that this helps but please do not hesitate to call me on the Myeloma Infoline on 0800 980 3332 or email askthenurse@myeloma.org.uk

Ellen
