wrong dx.

i dont want to worry you but my husband william was dx. jan.08 with mds intermediate risk. he was treated thru aug. of 08 with vidaza an aug. bmb was done and he was cleared of mds he no longer transfusion dependant and white count was normal so treatment was stopped his platlets were never affected. in jan. 09 his labs started to go down and so another bmb mds was back and all 3 lines were down and now had chromosones were affected. vidaza was restarted but without success he is transfusion dependant now and has to have platlett infusion now so be very careful about stopping treatment .
