Thanks Ruth, its nice to have an explanation in simpler terms. So is Myeloplastic Anaemia somewhere between the two diseases or is it a different disease? The reason I ask this is because none of the Doctors have ever mentioned anything about MDS to me and have always reffered to my condition as Aplastic Anaemia...its only when I saw the old notes that I started to wonder about MDS as I saw my cells had 'possible myelodyplastic features.' It is very comforting to know that AA/MDS is not inherited and its nice to see that people like you and Mellissa have had both diseases and are doing so well!
