Father Diagnosed
Hi,
My father (age 75) was diagnosed with MDS - stage4 - on 7 May 2014. We are not sure of the subtype yet - because the Doctor did not say. Hopefully we will have that clarified 9 May 2014.
The bone marrow biopsy report is rather difficult to read/understand.
Anyway, he starts Vidaza treatment on Monday, 12 May 2014 and will receive three days of treatment followed by a 28 day break.
We have ordered/received the MDS booklets from the Aplastic Anemia & MDS International Foundation and found them quite helpful.
I have directed my mother to this forum, so she will probably soon be registering as a member.
We are happy that we found this forum as it seems to be quite informative and supportive.
