MDS treatment

Hi Yaka,
It is easy to understand that you are frustrated.

Supportive therapy for MDS patients include platelet transfusions and Neupogen injections when they are needed. Look at treatment in this info from this site: http://www.marrowforums.org/mds.html#treatment

Then I wonder if your mother really is getting whole blood not packed red blood cells (PRBC). It is very uncommon and not OK for MDS patients.
Kind regards
Birgitta-A
