Anyone in Maine with MDS?
I was diagnosed on 6/27/11 with MDS/Acquired Refractory Anemia. After a bone marrow biopsy, it was determined there are no cancer cells. My body is producing two abnormal cells. But because in 2009 I was diagnosed with Mantle Cell Lymphoma, they didn't want to wait to do something about the MDS.
I did not have to have any prior chemo. I entered BWH in Boston, MA for 4 days of chemo (3.5 hrs per day); and then I had a Mini Allo transplant from a 27 yr male unrelated donor. I am now at day +34 and feeling good.
Just thought I'd check to see if there is anyone out there who might be close by.
