Thanks for your reply Ray,
I asked about that when I was first diagnosed and in shock when I was told that was the only cure.
My haematologist said my age was against me and the risk was great.
Unfortunately we are not as far advanced in the UK as you are in America.
I certainly will bring the subject up again in my next review in March.
Our health service is strapped for cash so we are told!!
That's down to mismanagement and wastage, the hospital I attend has only one doctor on the management team which is appalling.
Regards
Tony
