Hi Neil,

My mom has rcmd. She is 78 going on 79. We feel frustration because they do not seem to be offering any otheroptions. Transfusions are all she is getting. Iron is 4500 but will not do iron chelation do to infections. She did not do well on procrit so they are not doing much more. We feel like she has weeks. They spots are unknown. She had been on prednisone for sepsis pennulicitia in her ARM but they will not put her on it again because of infections. They say the red spots are not petechia but they do not know what they are. Thanks for any and all replies.

Katie
