Best of luck on the chemo.
There are so many different ways to go with induction chemo for MDS/AML, but as you noted, it is good that you are healthy enough that this is an option. Make sure that you ask enough questions about the protocol - specifically side effects, what they will do to manage them, use of anti-nausea, anti-fungal, antibiotics, antivirals, as needed in your situation. Starting with the chemo drugs, all have side effects, and I believe that if you know what to expect, then you are best able to manage your way through the process and know what to look out for and talk about with the doctor.
