Thumbs up MDS specialist

Hi Chirley,
Yes, we hope that your blood dyscrasies depend on some treatable disease in your R kidney!

If not, you could perhaps try to see a hematologist at Department of Haematology and Medical Oncology Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre in Melbourne with this adress: http://www.petermac.org/dept/haema/

The hematologists at this clinic participate in clinical trials for MDS patients and have to be able so diagnose MDS. The name of the doctor who is contact person for a trial for MDS patients is Dr Melita Kenealy, Department of Haematology and Medical Oncology, Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, Locked Bag 1 A’Beckett Street, Melbourne VIC 8006, tel: +61-3-9656 Ext. 1111, melita.kenealy@petermac.org.

I don´t mean that you should paticipate in a trial but you have to get in contact with a MDS specialist.
Kind regards
Birgitta
