AML Progression

I am so sorry to hear that the Vidaza is no longer working for you. My husband (60 yrs old) was recently diagnosed with a secondary MDS, which has a very poor prognosis due to chromosome abnormalities. He is supposed to start on Vidaza & Procrit when he sees his Oncology/Hematology doctor here in Des Moines, IA on Tuesday, 4/8/08. We are going to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN on 4/21/08 to talk to the transplant doctor to see if my husband is a good candidate for a SCT. His diagnosis means his MDS is an aggressive kind which will progress to AML. Please keep us informed as to how things are going & what kind of treatment the doctors decide to try next. Stay stong. We will keep you in our thoughts & prayers.

Sincerely,
Sandy & Pete Peterson
