I am writing on behalf on my Brother with MDS. Almost 10 years ago, he had BMT & I was the donor. Everything went well over the years until just recently when a blood test indicated a problem. Long story short, the bone marrow biopsy shows that he only has 50% of my cells & the malfunctioning cells are back.
His DR. at City of Hope in California is trying a medication to increase white cell production & hopefully suppress his old cells. If this does not work, there is one more drug therapy to try. Last resort is a 2nd BMT.
Has anyone experienced a similiar relapse after so many years, & perhaps had a successful treatment?
