I find that an amazing (bordering on irresponsible) statement, "My hemotologist told me he would never do a SCT". I would have died two years, perhaps three, ago without a SCT. Naturally, everyone is different with GVHD but I have had no GVHD problems other than a skin rash that I could hardly notice. My choice was simple, "did I want to live or die". There are some cases of MDS that can be strung out for years, but many cases need immediate attention with a very short prognosis.
