mds from radiation

They do not know what causes MDS . They think it might be exposure to Benzine or radiation treatments. Or maybe something in your genes.
I have a question. How many of you males have had prostate cancer and were treated with external radiation or radiation seed implants? I think it is something to think about.
My husband's MDS has advanced into AML.
He had prostate cancer in 1999. He was treated with radiation seed implants and it went in remission. It has been in remission to date.
In 2004 he was diagnosed with MDS.
Any comments?
