Thanks to all who have responded with encouraging words. We have had a wonderful week. Last week was not so great. Went to see the Oncologist and she admitted my husband to hospital. He received 4 units of blood in 3 days time and 1 unit of platelets and a Procrit shot. His counts were finally up and he was back to feeling good. Has had lots of vistors and phone calls from longtime friends wishing him the best and putting him on prayer lists. We are praying for remission. He goes for a CT scan ordered by the pulmonary doctor Tues. and back to see the oncologist that day also. Hope everything is good.
My husband is 72 years old and also has COPD and is on oxygen full time because of heart problems and the COPD. He was diagnosed at Intermediate 2 MDS on June 30, 2009.
