Dad has MDS, has anyone experienced this skin problem?
Hi, I am new to the site and THANK GOD someone has put this together for us. My father has MDS and has been fighting it for years successfully with drugs. He is now on Vidaza and has been experiencing awful skin problems, itching, rashes and currently his feet and hands are very painful with black large, painful scabs coming out on his skin. No one seems to know what it is or what is causing it. It is painful for him to put shoes on and walk and his hands are swollen and red with think large black scabs. Has anyone out there experienced this? Has anyone also had luck with Vidaza? We are still waiting for good results. He currently seems to be transfusion dependent.
Thanks to anyone who can respond and God bless everyone living with this disease and caring for someone with it. Keep HOPEFUL . . .
