Transplant coming
After 9 years the Dr. pulled the trigger on a transplant. I was on watch and wait, Revlimid and Dacogen. Per my latest BMB there is not much change in the marrow but Dr. says Marrow is getting worn out and not responding.
After expecting this for 9 years I am almost looking forward to getting this done and moving on. Dr. has a positive attitude on the outcome. I have 4 10/10 matches in which she will pick what she thinks is the best. I'm 54 and healthy except for the MDS.
Transplant will probably be in March or April.
Any suggestions on what I should be doing before the transplant?
