Hi Suzanne,
I feel like both you and I are in the same boat. My Mom (77) also has MDS. She has tried Vidaza and at first it worked beautifully but then failed. We are going to see Dr. Raza this week (I hope) to go onto the same trial as your Mom. My mother is also on antibiotics fighting a cough and infection. Yesterday she went to the Dr. to find that her WBC also increased from 1.8 to 2.9. Needless to say we were excited, but now that I read your post, maybe it isn't a good thing. This disease is horrible. I am in constant worry for her. The week of Christmas the Dr. told me that my mom has about 6 months to live. I was besides myself. My mom doesn't know this. She looks amazing and feels great, so it's so hard to digest what they tell you. Please keep us posted on your Mom. And know that you are not alone. My heart is breaking with yours. All the best!
