Dear AZWIFE,
My heart goes out to you and your husband. Diagnosed during Christmas season must have been hard to absorb. I am glad that you found this forum, there is so much to be gained by reading through the posts.
My husband is 56 too! But I'm the one that had MDS (I'm in remission now!). I was diagnosed last August - so last year I was where your husband is now. I can understand the anxiety he and you must be going through. You will get through this.
At that time, I didn't feel like eating either, so I mostly ate what I could, it didn't mean it was nutritious, but sometimes it was to get over the fatigue. That meant snacking instead of 3 hearty meals.
I do hope he gets over that cough. Cough drops? Ginger-honey tea?
Please keep us updated on Mayo and the transplant.
Take care,
Meri
