My husband Henry's diagnosis was by blood tests but the oncologist wanted to be sure and so a BM test was done and the diagnozis was definitely MDS. He has been doing well on the Vidaza treatments but this one last week really seemed to pull him down. He also had a cold and that along with the chemo has made him feel lousy. We go back tomorrow to see about getting more anitibotics for his "cold/lung congestion". His appetite has really dropped and he has lost 12 lbs. in the last month. We keep opitimistic and hope for the best. Henry's blood counts were good last week, but not as good as the week before. His platlet count was really up but WBC & RBC was down but not alarmingly so. We just keep hoping that the Vidaza will keep working.
I keep each of you in my prayers and keep up with your progress on this forum. God's blessings.
