I have Mgus attributed by my oncologist to long term use of sertraline, an SSRI. After withdrawal, I've developed neuropathy and tinnitus, occasional shooting nerve pains and brief migraines.

Oh course, it is important to consult a doctor first but should a person with mgus get cosmetic surgery? I heard mgus can cause blood clots, not sure how true that is.
