Paul,
Very similar. Last Nov my CMML morphed into AML so I had to do the 28 day, 7+3 chemo conditioning. For me, it was easy. Lost hair, and tired but no problems.
Two weeks at home then...
On Jan 1st started the Flu/Mel chemo and had new cells on the 6th. Pretty good until about day 9, when bowels went wacky, mind got confused, and very very tired. Hiccups were my culprit.
Done on day 23. Not bad except days 9-18 but never vomited.

Today I've had no signs of GVH and still tired. Cognition is returning and so is strength.

Good luck,
John in Portland Oregon
