MDS to AML and 1 month to live
My doctor told me last Friday that my MDS has progressed to AML and that I have 4-6 weeks to live. Has anybody else been given such sudden news? Does everyone go so quickly with this news?

I've read about a drug, Venetoclax, approved by the FDA November 2018. Has anybody tried this, yet?
