Hi David,
I am so sorry you and your wife are starting down this road. You don't have much information so all I can say is that if Dr. Carraway isn't an MDS expert or if you have any problems or doubts - or want a second opinion - you are close to one of the best facilities in the nation - the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda. My husband has been a patient of theirs since March of 2009 and I firmly believe they saved his life. The doctors are extremely accessible and the #1 Hematologist in the world - Dr. Neal Young - is over the hematology dept.
A sad welcome to the forums but it's a wonderful place for information and support. There are many very knowledgeable patients/caregivers who regularly post on this site.
Keep us informed and God Bless,
Sally
p.s. Although I have a Jack Russell "terrorist" now, I have had 2 Dachshunds and they are great dogs!
