NMliz,

MGUS was previously discussed here: http://www.gbs-cidp.org/topic/relationship-between-iga-pdn-and-anti-mag-pdn-mgus-associated-demyelinating-neuropath

A more comprehensive technical review of MGUS vs. other peripheral neuropathies is available here: http://www.guideline.gov/content.aspx?id=34913

If you can handle a 6-7 hour drive to Phoenix, there is a ‘Center of Excellence’ that can probably help you:
Banner Good Samaritan Medical Center
5090 North 40th St.
Suite 250
Phoenix, AZ 85018
Phone: 623-688-3013
Fax: 602-258-3368
http://www.phoenixneurology.com
Adult Care: Todd D. Levine, MD
David S. Saperstein, MD

The GBS-CIDP Foundation has a chapter in New Mexico that may be able to provide a referral to a nearby Neurologist, contact:
Rose Gallegos
Fairview NM 87533
505 929 2815

You should get treatment right away to reduce the risk of damage to the myelin.

Hope you find treatment quickly and are feeling better soon.
